Year: 2014

Type: article

Abstract: In Brief Semistructured interviews were completed with a sample of 25 men residing in an urban area of the Midwestern United States to elicit preferred methods of sexually transmitted infection service delivery. Results highlight the influence of stigma, social support, and perceived risk on sexually transmitted infection screening uptake and preferred methods of screening. A qualitative investigation of men residing in Indianapolis, Indiana, explored preferred methods for nonclinically based sexually transmitted infection screening, receiving results, and treatment.
