Description The purpose of this study is to provide an assessment of the key health behaviors, determinants and exposure to PSI programming among sexually active males with three (3) or more partners in the last 12 months - also referred to as Males at Risk (MAR). The study took place in Belize, where PASMO (Pan-American Social Marketing Organization), in collaboration with PSI/Caribbean, implemented project targeting MAR funded by KfW. PASMO’s program combines interpersonal communications (discussion groups and outreach) and mass media activities (radio and television programming) while using a high coverage social marketing strategy to increase access to and availability of condoms. The program aims to not only increase condom use among MAR but to also increase their ability and motivation to adopt safer sexual behaviors. Time location sampling was used to recruit 530 males 25-49 years old from known “hot spots.” “Hot spots” are defined as areas where males are known to congregate; e.g. community blocks, beaches, clubs, bars, shopping areas, and sporting events.
