After the education, risk sensitization, and communication skills segment
of the intervention condition, women were instructed on the correct use of
the male latex condom and the female ‘‘Reality’’ condom. The next segment
of the intervention condition included the formulation of an individualized
personal action plan to reduce one’s risk for HIV. This was designed as an
integration of the previous segments and allowed the participant to develop
an action plan tailored to her personal life circumstances and situations. In
the final segment of the intervention condition, the interventionist provided
the participant with referrals and phone numbers of resources she might find
useful.
