Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline in participants self-efficacy in condom use at 2-weeks post-intervention [ Time Frame: baseline and 2-weeks post intervention ]
    The Self-Efficacy for condom use measure contains a set of items to rate participant's belief that they will be able to use condoms every time they have anal sex in a variety of situations. A four-point response scale, ranging from 'strongly agree' (0) to 'strongly disagree' (4) is used. The psychometric properties of the measure have been examined and have been shown to have good internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.96.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline in participants intention to use condoms at 2-weeks post-intervention [ Time Frame: Baseline and 2-weeks post intervention ]
    The intention to use condoms measure asks participants their intention to consistently use condoms. The psychometric properties of the measure have been examined and have shown to have good internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.89.


Other Outcome Measures:
