-----
Abstract
------

This meta-analysis (

 

N = 110,092) assessed

 

the efficacy of HIV-prevention interventions across

samples with higher and lower concentrations of

Latinos/Latin Americans. Findings indicated that

groups with higher percents of Latinos increased

condom and HIV-related knowledge to a lesser extent

than groups with lower percents of Latinos/ Latin

Americans. Moreover, groups with greater percents of

Latinos/Latin Americans only benefited from intervention

strategies that included threat-inducing arguments,

whereas groups with lower percents of Latinos/

Latin Americans benefited from numerous strategies.

In addition, groups with greater percents of Latinos/

Latin Americans increased condom use when interventions

were conducted by a lay community member,

whereas groups with lower percents of these groups

increased condom use the most in response to experts.

Not surprisingly, there were important differences

among Latinos/Latin Americans with different education

levels, different genders, and US/Latin American

nationality.
