Hi, friend! I get a question about Internet-based interventions for sexual health promotion. You may also be aware that men who meet other men through the use of the Internet are more likely to practice unprotected anal intercourse. Therefore, health promoters are increasingly supplementing traditional forms of face-to-face health education with Internet-based HIV-prevention interventions that aim to change both individual behaviors and community attitudes towards sexual health and condom use. However, I found that program evaluation of the effectiveness of such intervention is still very rare. Could you kindly help me with it?

Yes, you are totally right. Evaluation of the effectiveness of interactive computer-based HIV prevention interventions is in its infancy. What is known from the broader field of sexual health promotion is that they are ‘effective tools for learning about sexual health, and they also show positive effects on self-efficacy, intention and sexual behavior’, argued by Bailey et al. (2010). Actually, there is a published article that I would like to recommend to you: . I guess you would love it!

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?

I have designed a large-scale survey about the life satisfaction of low-income families in Hong Kong. Is it appropriate to use the electronic survey through mobile phones?
