“…Elicitation focus groups were conducted to discover and gain understanding of Spanish-speaking Latinas' attitudes and perceived barriers and facilitators to HIRRB (Davila et al, 2007). Identified salient HIV beliefs were (a) knowledge-the belief that women's knowledge about HIV is important to their health, (b) health-the belief that HIV testing and condom use are important in HIV prevention, and (c) male partner's mistrust-the belief that male partners view HIRRB as indicators of infidelity, sexually transmitted disease (STD)/HIV infection, and lack of trust.…”

The purpose of this study was to test two modules of a theoretically based, gender- and culturally specific HIV intimate partner violence risk reduction intervention for Spanish-speaking Latinas. The themes of the modules were "Estás en una relación sana y segura?" (Are you in a healthy and safe relationship?) and "Mantenerse sana y segura" (Keeping yourself healthy and safe). An evaluative one-group, repeated measure design with measures collected at preintervention (N = 31), immediate postintervention (n = 26), and 1-month postintervention follow-up (n = 20) design was used to evaluate the intervention. Study results represent a small but significant first step toward an integrative approach to the prevention of two major and interrelated public health issues among an at-risk and underserved population.

“…Alcohol abuse and socioeconomic pressures combined with perceived violation of traditional gender roles have been identified as antecedents of IPV (Fawcett, Heise, Isita-Espeje, & Pick, 1999). Besides the immediate consequences of injury, emotional distress, or death, IPV has been implicated as a risk factor for unprotected sex and higher incidence of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (Davila, Bonilla, Gonzalez-Ramirez, & Villarruel, 2007).…”

Immigration from Latin America is changing the demographics of the United States. By the year 2050, one of every four persons in the United States will be of Hispanic ethnicity. As this segment of American society grows, interventions that improve health status for these individuals must be expanded and enhanced. HIV infection disproportionately affects people in the Hispanic community. Hispanics have unique cultural and social characteristics and norms that place them at risk for HIV exposure. The purpose of this report is to highlight culturally related issues that have been associated with HIV risk in Hispanics. Clinicians can broaden their knowledge of and appreciation for the complex cultural issues related to HIV research. Additionally, clinicians can steer interventions toward more culturally competent care for this rapidly growing segment of American society.

“…These marianismo beliefs directly affect women's ability to negotiate and make decisions during sexual encounters (Davila, Bonilla, Gonzalez-Ramirez, & Villarruel, 2007;Moreno, 2007). Clearly, this places women in vulnerable positions not only for IPV, but also other negative sexual health outcomes.…”

“…This dynamic has been identified as a contributing factor for IPV, as Dutton, Orloff and Aguilar Hass, (2000) found that nearly half of the Hispanics in their study reported an increase in partner violence since their immigration to the United States. It has been suggested that IPV occurs at a much higher rate among Hispanic men oriented toward machismo because they may use violence as a means of establishing power and authority when dealing with a partner holding less traditional gender role views (Davila et al, 2007).…”
