基督教聖經之智慧書導讀 :	In the United States, Black men face a disproportionate risk of HIV infection, delayed diagnosis, and HIV-related mortality compared to individuals from other racial and ethnic backgrounds. While a notable portion of HIV infections among Black men is associated with same-sex encounters, the burden of HIV transmission remains alarmingly high among Black heterosexual men. Various socio-economic and psychosocial factors shape the heightened vulnerability of heterosexual Black men to HIV risk. Complicating these challenges, elevated rates of male incarceration amplify the risks of HIV transmission. Limited access to HIV prevention, screening, and treatment services further diminishes motivation, skills, and self-efficacy for consistent condom use. At the interpersonal and individual levels, the risk of heterosexual HIV transmission in this population is intertwined with the impact of social determinants on mental health, including depression and substance use.This study sought to enhance understanding of PrEP awareness and utilization among heterosexual Black men. Findings indicated that approximately 65% of participants were unaware of PrEP, and 72% expressed reluctance to use it in the next three months after being informed about its efficacy. The conclusive analysis explored the complex relationship between demographic characteristics and psychosocial factors, collectively influencing the likelihood of PrEP use in the next three months. Key influences included age, with individuals aged 18-29 exhibiting the highest likelihood of PrEP use. Surprisingly, those with lower education levels (grades 1-11) were more likely to use PrEP, alongside factors such as marital status, perceived susceptibility to HIV infection, and higher self-efficacy. Notably, higher levels of depression were unexpectedly associated with increased odds of PrEP use, challenging prevailing beliefs that mental health challenges act as barriers to PrEP adoption.Distinguishing itself through its focus on psychosocial aspects in a sample of heterosexual Black men, this study addresses a gap in the current research. Recognizing and addressing these knowledge gaps contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of the determinants influencing PrEP adoption within this community, which is crucial for informing tailored interventions and public health strategies for the unique needs of heterosexual Black men in effectively addressing the challenges of HIV.
