This arm of the motivational enhancement intervention (MEI) will be delivered face to face (FtF) using a real-time, dynamic implementation approach. The intervention consisted of 2 sessions lasting approximately 60 to 90 minutes. The sessions focused on increasing participants' awareness of the multiple influences on behaviors from self, family, culture and community and how these influences impact the way we think and behave including sexually. Through a series of exercises the participant develops strategies for understanding and managing his own triggers that helps them to make healthy life choices. Both Motiv8 2Change arms used the exact same intervention, with the exception that one was delivered face to face and the other through the internet.

A pilot test of a culturally and developmentally tailored MEI to reduce risky sex (unprotected anal sex and multiple partners) among young Hispanic men who have sex with men (YHMSM) to be delivered face-to-face (FtF) and through the Internet using a real-time implementation approach. A tailored MEI for two delivery modalities, and a health education control (HEALTH) comparable in time and number of sessions. We will test the MEI's acceptability and feasibility, obtain effect size estimates of the intervention's strength to reduce risky sex, and determine if it is ready for efficacy testing.
