Real Men Are Safe–Culturally Adapted: Utilizing the Delphi Process to Revise Real Men Are Safe for an Ethnically Diverse Group of Men in Substance Abuse Treatment

Abstract: Real Men Are Safe (REMAS) was effective at reducing the number of unprotected sexual occasions for men in substance abuse treatment compared to an HIV education control intervention. Utilizing a modified Delphi process, modules from REMAS were compared to similar-content modules from other CDC-approved, culturally tailored HIV prevention interventions. Utilizing ratings and recommendations obtained from an independent expert panel, REMAS was subsequently revised to be more culturally adapted for an ethnically … Show more

“…The culturally adapted REMAS intervention mentioned above is an example of an intervention in which the adapted version included more focus on sociocultural and contextual factors (Calsyn et al, 2012). The generic REMAS, which focused less on sociocultural factors, was relatively less effective for reducing HIV risk among Black than White men.…”

“…However, even though both of these methods use experts familiar with the cultural group, neither involves experts with prior experience specifically in the cultural adaptation of intervention with other groups. Calsyn’s team (2012) engaged scholars and clinicians with prior experience specifically in cultural adaptation. The case study below describes their process.…”

“…Medical complications associated with anal sex (e.g., anorectal STIs, hepatitis B, vaginal infections from anal matter when HAS precedes vaginal intercourse, HPV-related anal cancers) could also be described. Finally, the inclusion of content that speaks to men's cultural perspectives on masculinity and how they relate to their sexual relationships has been shown promising in increasing condom use and decreasing sex under the influence (Calsyn et al, 2012; 2013). Overall, our preliminary analyses suggest that anal sex risk can respond to gender-specific sexual risk reduction interventions, but that there is still room for improvement and this might be achieved via augmentation of HAS-related curricula.…”

“…This shortcoming raises even more concerns as a growing body of literature suggests that evidence-based interventions for one group may not be particularly effective with other groups (Calsyn et al, 2012; Covey et al, 2008, 2010; Robbins et al, 2002; Winhusen et al, 2008). Nevertheless, some promising evidence suggests that Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) may be effective for African Americans (Hettema, Steele, & Miller, 2005; Montgomery, Burlew, Kosinski, & Forcehimes, 2011; Montgomery, Burlew, Wilson, & Hall, 2011; Winhusen et al, 2008).…”
