EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive Internet-based tailored prevention messages

ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants will receive non-tailored messages containing information on reproductive health
Interventions
Participants will receive five 30-second flash clips promoting condom norms, positive attitudes, self-efficacy, and risk awareness. Participants in the Youthnet program will be asked their gender and ethnicity so they may be assigned to a role model of the same gender and ethnicity via a computer program. This role model will appear online 5 times during the survey to deliver interactive messages that will be tailored to HIV/STD risk reduction and will specifically address attitudes about condom usage.
The control program will deliver five general, non-tailored messages containing information on reproductive health not specific to condoms or STDs.
