Abstract

Purpose of reviewDespite enormous advances in prevention and care modalities, HIV continues to burden populations around the globe and is largely driven by social and behavioral processes. Mixed methods and qualitative research endeavors are best suited to uncovering and making sense of these dynamics, producing unique and actionable findings to alleviate the burden of HIV. We reviewed the global literature published on PubMed from 2020 to 2021 to identify studies that produced new insights into the social and behavioral dynamics that drive the HIV epidemic, focusing on mixed methods or purely qualitative study designs.Recent findingsMixed methods and qualitative studies have revealed important nuances in the social and behavioral dynamics associated with the HIV prevention and care continua, from preexposure prophylaxis uptake and adherence to engagement in HIV care and treatment, and have important implications for attaining goals for controlling the epidemic.SummaryArticles reviewed contribute to advancing our understanding of complex social dynamics, structural level factors such as healthcare systems and policy, as well as the research endeavor itself and the need to diversify and sustain research to truly represent the perspectives of those most impacted by HIV. Numerous studies represent the unique ability of qualitative and mixed methods research to expand our understanding of and empathy for individuals living with and affected by HIV, offering new insights to help alleviate the burden of HIV.
