Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Game Plan for PrEPExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will be asked to use Game Plan for PrEP for however long they wish. Game Plan for PrEP is a web-based intervention that provides users with feedback about how much their risk for HIV is reduced on PrEP, their risk for bacterial STIs, and helps them make a plan to take their medication regularly and reduce their risk for STIs. Game Plan for PrEP also providers users with feedback about their alcohol use compared to others in their age group and encourages them to make a plan to reduce it.
Group II: Lifestyle Habits VideosPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants in this condition will view several videos that encourage them to adopt sleep hygiene and healthy diet behaviors. The videos were selected to last as long as the average time users engage with Game Plan for PrEP in its initial modules.
