“…Although education may be effective at moving people through the early stages of change, the Behavioral Ecological Model (BEM) [23][24][25] argues that additional efforts are necessary before behavior change (i.e., the action stage) will occur or be sustained over a long period of time (i.e., the maintenance stage). Guided largely by social cognitive and operant learning theories, the BEM argues that various antecedents and consequences influence the likelihood that an individual will engage in a particular behavior (in this instance, completing the three-dose hepatitis B vaccination series).…”

“…Methods often used to teach these skills include the modeling, role-playing, and practice of negotiation tactics, and emphasis of communication with sexual partners as an important precursor of condom use. Negotiation skills training has been incorporated into HIV risk reduction intervention programs for many at-risk populations including adolescents (DiNoia & Schinke, 2007; Fisher, Fisher, Bryan & Misovich, 2002; Hovell et al, 2001), inner-city men (Calsyn et al, 2009; Kalichman, Cherry, & Browne-Sperling, 1999) and women (Carey et al, 2000; DiClemente & Wingood, 1995), gay men (Bowen et al, 2008; Kelly et al, 1997), and adults with serious mental illness (Otto-Salaj, Kelly, Hoffmann, Stevenson, & Kalichman, 2001; Sikkema, Meade, Doughty-Berry, Zimmerman, Kloos, & Snow, 2007; Susser et al, 1998). In several meta-analyses of HIV risk reduction interventions, negotiation skills training has been cited as a common component of many HIV interventions that have been deemed efficacious in changing HIV risk behaviors (e.g, meta-analyses by Albarracin, Gillette, Earl, Glasman, Durantini & Ho, 2005; Crepaz et al, 2006; Darbes, Crepaz, Lyles, Kennedy & Rutherford, 2008; Herbst, Kay, Passin, Lyles, Crepaz, & Marin, 2007).…”

This study describes responses of 172 single heterosexual African American men, ages 18-35, to condom negotiation attempts. Strategies used included reward, coercive, legitimate, expert, referent, and informational strategies, based on Raven's (1992) influence model. The purpose was: 1) to identify strategies influencing participant acquiescence to request, and 2) to identify predictors of participant compliance/refusal to comply with negotiation attempts. Participants viewed six videotape segments showing an actress, portrayed in silhouette, speaking to the viewer as a 'steady partner'. After each segment, participants completed measures of: request compliance, positive and negative affect, and attributions concerning the model and themselves. No significant differences were found in men's ratings across all vignettes. However, differences in response existed across subgroups of individuals, suggesting that while the strategy used had little impact on participant response, the act of suggesting condom use produced responses that differed across participant subgroups. Subgroups differed on levels of AIDS risk knowledge, STD history, and experience with sexual coercion. Also, the "least-willing-to-use" subgroup was highest in anger/rejection and least likely to make attributions of caring for partner. Effective negotiation of condom use with a male sexual partner may not be determined as much by specific strategy used as by partner characteristics.Interventions to assist persons in reducing risk for HIV infection have drawn upon a number of behavioral science theories, such as the Theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen, 1991); social cognitive and self-efficacy theory (Bandura, 1988); the Information-Motivation-Behavior model (Fisher & Fisher, 1992); and the AIDS Risk Reduction Model (Catania, Kegeles, & Coates, 1990). Although these theories approach the issue of HIV risk behavior changes from different perspectives, they all posit that behavioral skills-including the ability to communicate condom use requests with sexual partners--are important determinants of success in risk reduction behavior change.State-of-the-art skills building interventions aimed at promoting HIV risk reduction behavior change have often emphasized the acquisition of sexual assertiveness, communication, and negotiation skills to be used with sexual partners. Methods often used to teach these skills

“…12,17,25 Changing the subject, walking away, and suggesting an alternative activity are used less frequently. 12,19 The majority of studies that have examined adolescents' generation of refusal skill strategies have done so within the context of refusing drugs or sexual advances (as part of HIV/AIDS prevention programs), [27][28][29] and adolescents' refusal strategies within a non-drug-using, delinquent context, such as vandalism or shoplifting, has yet to be examined.…”

Objectives: To examine associations among adolescents' generated verbal strategies (ie, Simple No, Declarative Statements, Excuse, Alternatives) and underlying nonverbal assertiveness in 2 refusal situations: smoking and shoplifting. Methods: Sixth-grade urban minority students (N = 454) participated in videotaped role-play assessments of peer refusal skills. Results: Differences were found by situation with students demonstrating greater use of Simple No in the smoking refusal and Alternatives in the shoplifting refusal. Nonverbal assertiveness was similar across situations and was associated with Declarative Statements, but only in the smoking refusal. Conclusions: Prevention programs should tailor refusal skills practice to cover multiple situations.
