摘要

Rates of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake for HIV prevention continue to increase rapidly among men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United States (U.S.); however, these increases have been slower among young MSM. Emerging adulthood (ages 18-25) is a time of transitions and social development, resulting in increased vulnerability to HIV. Analyzing data from a cross-sectional survey of emerging adult MSM (ages 18-25 years; n = 281) in the Mid-Atlantic urban metropolitan region of the U.S., we examined how social identity support, descriptive PrEP norms, and economic instability were related to PrEP engagement. In structural equation models, PrEP norms were directly associated with PrEP engagement (beta = 0.29, 95% CI = [0.12,0.46]) and social identity support was indirectly associated with PrEP engagement through its association with descriptive PrEP norms (beta = 0.18, 95% CI = [0.09,0.28]). Economic instability was not significantly associated with PrEP engagement, although a negative trend was present (beta = -0.19, 95% CI = [-0.39,0.02]). Our results suggest that an integrative socioecological model is appropriate for the study of PrEP engagement among emerging adult MSM. Efforts to increase PrEP engagement should support community capacity building, amplify positive descriptive PrEP norms, and address unmet economic needs.
