risk of HIV infection and to prevent or treat neuropsychiatric sequelae

strategies, methodological approaches, settings, and specific
populations will be reviewed across approximately 32 studies. RESULTS:
Convergent findings will be presented across studies that specify
effective techniques associated with a reduction in high risk behaviors
will be discussed. In addition, data on effective behavioral and
cognitive strategies associated with reduced stress, improved quality of
life, and disease progression will be presented. DISCUSSION AND

prevention strategies to reduce the spread of HIV infection in USA. In
