FLEX is a Motivational Interviewing, home-based coaching program that concurrently targets HIV-related and physical activity goals among African American youth living with HIV in the United States. To create and pilot test FLEX, we leveraged a 2-step exploratory sequential mixed methods design informed by the ORBIT model with initial qualitative work followed by pre-post analysis of quantitative outcomes, concluding with qualitative exit surveys. Data were evaluated pre- and 3-months post-intervention. Recruitment was 90%. Participants reported high program satisfaction and program adherence (76% completion rate). Preliminary findings indicate reductions in participants' viral loads and improvements across 4 measures of physical activity.
FLEX是一项动机性访谈式的居家指导计划，该计划同时针对美国感染艾滋病毒的非裔美国青少年的艾滋病毒相关目标和体育活动目标。为了创建并对FLEX进行试点测试，我们采用了两步探索性序列混合方法设计，该设计以ORBIT模型为依据，首先进行定性研究，然后对定量结果进行前后分析，最后进行定性退出调查。在干预前和干预后3个月对数据进行评估。招募成功率为90%。参与者对该计划的满意度很高，且计划依从性良好（完成率为76%）。初步研究结果表明，参与者的病毒载量有所降低，并且在四项体育活动指标上都有所改善。
