Stimulant Expectancy Questionnaire for Men who have Sex with Men: A Measure of Substance-Related Beliefs.

CONCLUSIONS: The SEQ-MSM represents a reliable measure of outcome expectancies related to the range of commonly used stimulants among Australian MSM. Development of applied validation studies with the SEQ-MSM is a key next step in advancing health promotion, clinical interventions and research efforts to reduce harm (e.g., HIV transmission) associated with stimulant use (particularly methamphetamine) amongst MSM. SO WHAT?: OBJECTIVES: This research maps expectancies specific among gay and men who have sex with men (MSM), and relationships between expectancies and stimulant use patterns and behaviours post-use-including sexual activity (e.g., condomless anal sex).
