Study population: We will recruit patient partners, biomedical HIV researchers and IRB members/bioethicists involved in HIV research and patient partners with HIV co-morbidities (depression, heart disease, arthritis). For the patient populations, we will target men (including MSM) and women aging with HIV, cis and transgender women, and youth (age 18+) of color, but participation will be open to everyone over 18 years of age living with HIV who speaks English and live in the United States.

Who may be able to join

  • people living with HIV
  • biomedical HIV researchers
  • IRB members/bioethicists involved in HIV research

Who cannot join

  • people under 18 years of age

About this study

Official title: Evaluating the Impact of Incentives on HIV Related Clinical Trial Participation

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of incentives on clinical trial participation. 1) characterize key stakeholders' views on and assessment of incentives, 2) reach consensus among stakeholders on the factors to be considered when choosing incentives and their relative importance, 3) pilot test using vignettes for incentive decision making. We hypothesize that potential study participants make trade-offs regarding the characteristics of a research study when deciding whether to volunteer. This amendment is to document IRB reliance between UCR and USF.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • This is not an interventional studyOther

    While this is not an intervention, there will be separate participants for the survey study and for the other components of the study (focus groups, interviews, conjoint analysis, piloting the vignettes

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. characterize how people living with HIV assess incentives

    we will conduct a 20 question quantitative survey of a nationally representative sample of people living with HIV asking about specific study payment information and scenarios

    Measured: 3 months

  2. characterize key stakeholders' views on and assessment of incentives

    focus groups, and key informant interviews will be used to characterize key stakeholders' (people aging with HIV, IRB members, researchers) views on and assessment of incentives, with qualitative analysis of text done using RaDAR. We will use Conjoint Analysis (CJA) to estimate the relative importance (also called "weight") that participants place on each study characteristic when choosing between different hypothetical studies.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. pilot testing vignettes for incentive decision making

    We will develop HIV related vignettes (hypothetical scenarios) utilizing the data from outcomes 1 and 2. Specifically, once we have 6 to 8 study characteristics from Aim 2, and the final number of choices (2 - 3) per characteristic, we will use a factorial design to create 25 vignettes (hypothetical scenarios). Individuals from each group (i.e., study participants, researchers, and IRB members) will select the most appropriate incentive from a list of possibilities based on various scenarios. These vignettes will be based on studies identified in the literature and a review of consent forms and created in conjunction with the external advisory board (including pre-testing and revision prior to finalization).

    Measured: 3 months
