Abstract

There is confusion regarding reason and rational thought as a precondition for interventions designed using a reasoned action approach. To test their feasibility, two interventions were developed for use with persons with mental illnesses, using the reasoned action model. Preventing AIDS through Health (PATH) was delivered one-on-one by case managers to persons with mental illnesses who were HIV sero-negative, and another (PATH PLUS) was delivered by nurses to persons with mental illness who were sero-positive. Using these data, this article examines the utility of a reasoned action approach to HIV prevention among persons with a variety of serious mental illnesses. It appears that a reasoned action approach is useful for persons with severe mental illnesses and may be a useful strategy for changing intentions and behavior among this population. This has implications for further research on the role of nonnormative belief systems in predicting behavior.
