By consistently taking medication, people with HIV (PWH) can attain viral suppression, improving their health and reducing transmission risk. PositiveLinks (PL) is a clinic-deployed mobile platform designed to improve engagement in care for PWH by enabling them to track their medications, connect with peers, and communicate with providers. This project investigated the experience of PL users who had recent periods of viral non-suppression to understand how these high-risk episodes can be predicted and prevented.

Purpose: The range of impairments in children with neurodisability (ND) complicates data collection, yet individualising materials and procedures could enable more children to self-report.

The CATQ is used in a longitudinal study of mental health and participation in children with ND investigating adaptation use and its utility in assessing the risk of bias introduced by these adaptations.
