“…If you are considering incorporating videoconferencing, it will be important to acknowledge that-as with many strategies-this will not work for everyone. Although "smart phones" are common, in a recent study [9] we found that 30.3% of a large sample of PLWH in Florida reported that they did not have access to a phone with internet [9]. 13.6% did not have internet at home via any device [9].…”

“…Help Participants Prepare for the Video-Call Experience Data from one of our recent studies suggests many PLWH may not have engaged in videoconferencing previously [9].

“…Others reported having limited data plans that might preclude videoconferencing. Most (94%) of those who had the required technology were willing to engage in videoconferencing related to HIV, but not everyone was willing [9]. If you decide to use videoconferencing, to reduce inequities and maximize the reach of your work, consider alternative ways to engage those who cannot or will not use this medium [9].…”

“…We have also engaged in focus groups and individual assessments over videoconferencing, resulting in quantitative and qualitative data to understand experiences and nuances [4,6]. Moreover, our work has helped us to understand access to internet and devices needed for videoconferencing (i.e., "smart-phones," tablets, desktops or laptop computers) and potential willingness to engage in videoconferencing individually and in groups [2,3,5,9]. These experiences provide the basis for this manuscript, which reports on processes and considerations for rapidly implementing videoconferencing to connect with participants for data collection, as well as for individual and groupbased interventions.…”

The novel coronavirus has upended many traditional research procedures as universities and other research entities have closed to activate social distancing. Some social and behavioral research activities (e.g. data analysis, manuscript preparation) can be continued from other environments with appropriate security protocols in place. For studies involving in-person interactions, continuity may be more difficult. Phone-based interactions provide a low-tech solution that may suffice in some cases. Yet, videoconferencing platforms can nearly replicate in-person interactions, activating both auditory and visual senses and potentially resulting in more substantial engagement. Staff can meet with participants individually or in groups, each seeing and hearing one another in real time. This paper provides guidance for researchers transitioning in-person assessments and interventions to a synchronous videoconferencing platform. Best practices, key considerations, examples from the field, and sample protocols are presented to ease transition for ongoing studies and maximize the potential of videoconferencing-and social distancing.

HIV disproportionately impacts individuals based on intersecting categories (e.g. gender, race/ethnicity, behavior), with groups most at-risk deemed priority populations. Using weighted effects coding to account for differential group sizes, this study used multilevel mixed logistic models to investigate differences in eHealth use and willingness to use eHealth for HIVrelated information among priority populations. Compared to the sample average, Black men who had sex with women were less likely to use all technologies except cellphones with text-messaging and less likely to be willing to use computers and tablets. White and Hispanic men who had sex with men were more likely to use all technologies. No significant differences existed for use or willingness to use cellphones with text-messaging. Future research should consider approaches used here to account for equity and multiple intersecting social identities; practitioners may use these findings or similar local data to ensure fit between eHealth programs and priority populations.
