Abstract
To examine adherence to a 23-session intervention for young people living with HIV. Two hundred eight HIV-positive youth were assigned by small cohort to a behavioral intervention. Youth with more personal strengths were more likely to attend the intervention; those with more competing environmental demands (eg, employment, school) were less likely to attend the intervention. Using a social support, spiritual hope, or self-destructive and escape coping style was associated with attendance. Youth who reported many sexual partners attended fewer sessions. Adherence varied by cohort assignment. When designing future interventions, high attendance should be considered as a goal.
