Significance of the Research. This dissertation addresses gaps in the scientific literature on pharmacists’ attitudes and practices related to provision of syringes to PWID. This is the first study to combine qualitative and quantitative methods to develop and test theory-driven comprehensive models explaining the linkage between background and contextual factors (i.e. knowledge, social conservatism), stigma, pharmacists’ and pharmacy students’ attitudes towards PWID and syringe sale practices. This is the first study to explore service providers’ attitudes and practices related to provision of HIV prevention services to PWID in Tajikistan and in Central Asia in general, a region with disproportionately high prevalence of HIV among this population. This research also aims to test the applicability of an established behavioral science theory (see Theoretical Framework section) to explaining attitudes and practices related to syringe sales. The study results will help to inform the development of interventions promoting accessibility of syringes for PWID in Tajikistan as part of comprehensive HIV response. To that end, this exploratory study will pursue the following specific aims: Aim 1: Explore the meanings and processes of stigmatization and discrimination against PWID. Aim 2: Assess pharmacists’ (N = 220) practices, attitudes and associated factors related to the provision of sterile needles and syringes to PWID in two cities of Tajikistan (Dushanbe and Kulob). Aim 3: Assess pharmacy students’ (N = 220) attitudes and associated factors related to the provision of sterile needles and syringes to PWID in Dushanbe. Theoretical framework Since the literature suggests that attitudes and beliefs play an important role in forming pharmacists’ decision to provide services to PWID, we assume that the willingness of the former to provide syringes can be explained by applying the Integrated Behavioral Model (IBM). Developed as an extension of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), IBM integrates attitudes and beliefs as key constructs explaining intent to perform the behavior – a major determinant of actual behavior. IBM and TPB also account for the influence of perceived external factors (i.e. social norms, environmental barriers and facilitators) on behavior by encompassing perceived norms and self-efficacy constructs. IBM and TPB have been successfully applied to a wide range of behaviors in various settings (Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx, 2008). In particular, TPB has been used to investigate attitudes...

Significance of the Research. The significance of this research is the criteria of service level agreement implementation which could be of help for ABC to improvement the service quality of service providers and also improve relationship for both sides. This research would provide an opportunity for management to consider further development on the list of service level agreement and implementation which leads to effectiveness to manage suppliers and efficient supply chain management, increasing customer satisfaction and company success is of crucial importance. Besides, this study also provides a great opportunity for researcher to understand the concept of service level agreement and how to apply service level agreement strategy in the real business world.

Significance of the Research. This dissertation addresses gaps in the literature and advances research on the relationships between neighborhood characteristics and women’s sexual health by using multilevel approaches to investigate associations of neighborhood characteristics with sexual risk behavior, sex partner risk, and STIs among a predominately HIV-infected cohort of women living in the Southern US. This dissertation research will be the first study to explore whether and how neighborhood-level characteristics (e.g., social disorder) influence sexual risk behavior (e.g., unprotected vaginal intercourse), sexual network characteristics (e.g., sex partner non-monogamy), and current STI status among HIV-infected women. An understanding of whether and how neighborhood environments contribute to the sexual health of women living with HIV can inform the development of future multilevel interventions designed to improve women’s sexual health and reduce HIV/STI transmission. The specific aims of this study are: Aim 1. Examine relationships between neighborhood characteristics and sex partner risk, and investigate whether the magnitudes and directions of these relationships vary by HIV status. Subaim 1. Examine relationships between social organizational factors (e.g., neighborhood trust and cohesion) and sex partner risk, and explore the role of neighborhood trust and cohesion in the relationships between social disorder and sex partner risk. Aim 2. Examine relationships between neighborhood characteristics and sexual risk behaviors, and investigate whether the magnitudes and directions of these relationships vary by HIV status. Aim 3. Examine relationships between neighborhood characteristics and current STI status, and investigate whether the magnitudes and directions of these relationships vary by HIV status. This research is guided by the Socioecologic Framework (SEF) and social organization models (i.e., Social Disorganization Theory, Social Capital) (Figure 1.1).49,50,56,57 We hypothesized that the relationship between neighborhood factors and sexual risk would be moderated by HIV status. The SEF provides a valuable framework through which to conceptualize the multilevel determinants of sexual risk and STIs, and acknowledges that health behaviors and related outcomes are influenced by multiple facets of the physical and social environment, which are multidimensional and multilevel. The SEF allows for the integration of other theoretical constructs, which can refine research on dif...

  • Research Use The Requester agrees that if access is approved, (1) the PI named in the DAR and (2) those named in the “Senior/Key Person Profile” section of the DAR, including the Information Technology Director and any trainee, employee, or contractor1 working on the proposed research project under the direct oversight of these individuals, shall become Approved Users of the requested dataset(s). Research use will occur solely in connection with the approved research project described in the DAR, which includes a 1-2 paragraph description of the proposed research (i.e., a Research Use Statement). Investigators interested in using Cloud Computing for data storage and analysis must request permission to use Cloud Computing in the DAR and identify the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) or providers and/or Private Cloud System (PCS) that they propose to use. They must also submit a Cloud Computing Use Statement as part of the DAR that describes the type of service and how it will be used to carry out the proposed research as described in the Research Use Statement. If the Approved Users plan to collaborate with investigators outside the Requester, the investigators at each external site must submit an independent DAR using the same project title and Research Use Statement, and if using the cloud, Cloud Computing Use Statement. New uses of these data outside those described in the DAR will require submission of a new DAR; modifications to the research project will require submission of an amendment to this application (e.g., adding or deleting Requester Collaborators from the Requester, adding datasets to an approved project). Access to the requested dataset(s) is granted for a period of one (1) year, with the option to renew access or close-out a project at the end of that year. Submitting Investigator(s), or their collaborators, who provided the data or samples used to generate controlled-access datasets subject to the NIH GDS Policy and who have Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval and who meet any other study specific terms of access, are exempt from the limitation on the scope of the research use as defined in the DAR.
