Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Computer Science Applications
  • Behavioral Research Methods

Background:

  • Computer-assisted interviewing (CAI) is increasingly utilized in HIV/AIDS prevention research.
  • Audio computer-assisted self-interviewing (ACASI) offers a promising approach, yet adoption is hindered by unfamiliarity with practical implementation challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the implementation of the Questionnaire Development System (QDS) ACASI software in nursing and HIV/AIDS prevention research.
  • To provide practical guidance and address challenges associated with ACASI implementation in diverse research settings.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of QDS software in two large-scale public health studies.
  • Collection and analysis of acceptability and satisfaction data from diverse populations.
  • Detailed discussion of questionnaire development, programming, equipment selection, staff training, and data management strategies.

Main Results:

  • QDS demonstrated acceptability and satisfaction among diverse populations in large-scale public health studies.
  • Practical strategies for planning, implementing, and managing ACASI data collection were identified.
  • Advantages and disadvantages of computer-assisted research methods were summarized.

Conclusions:

  • The Questionnaire Development System (QDS) is a viable and effective ACASI software for HIV/AIDS prevention research.
  • Addressing practical issues and providing clear implementation strategies can facilitate wider adoption of ACASI technology.
  • Computer-assisted methods offer significant benefits for behavioral and public health research.
