title: [Development of a tool for evaluating conflict management and sexual negotiation: a contribution to the fight against HIV/AIDS among women].
abstract: The development and validation process of the Video Rating Scale of Conflict Management and Sexual Negotiation (EAVI) is presented. This instrument was developed as a response to the growing incidence of HIV/AIDS infection among heterosexual women and recognizes the need to evaluate prevention efforts that focus on the development of sexual negotiation skills. EAVI was used to evaluate taped simulations of couples negotiating safer sex. Content validity and reliability analysis were performed. Overall, the scale has a content validity score of .90 and a reliability of 75%. The validity and reliability of specific subscales was low thus suggesting a need for revision. Suggestions are provided for improving the measure and examples of its actual usefulness in academic and community settings are presented.
