Jeffrey T. Parsons is an American psychologist, researcher, and educator; he was a Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Hunter College [1] and The Graduate Center [2] of the City University of New York (CUNY) and was the Director of Hunter College's Center for HIV/AIDS Educational Studies & Training, [3] which he founded in 1996. [4] Parsons was trained as a developmental psychologist and applied this training to understand health, with a particular emphasis on HIV prevention and treatment. He was known for his research on HIV risk behaviors of gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM), HIV-related syndemics, and sexual compulsivity. He resigned his positions at CUNY on July 3, 2019, following a year-long university investigation of misconduct allegations against him. [5] [6] [7] . In 2023, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced that he was required to pay a $375,000 settlement for engaging in fraud against the federal government for many years. [8]

Education and training

Parsons received his B.A. in Psychology from the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, WA in 1988 with a minor in Theatre Arts. He went on to complete an M.A. in 1990 and Ph.D. in 1992 in Developmental Psychology from the University of Houston in Houston, TX. While there, he worked with Dr. Alexander Siegel on understanding the health risk behaviors of adolescents, with a primary focus on substance use.

Research

Parsons was a nationally and internationally recognized expert in HIV prevention and treatment, having been particularly influential on understanding health risk behaviors associated with HIV transmission and HIV-related health outcomes for GBMSM. He was a pioneer in understanding the etiology and consequences of sexual compulsivity (now often referred to as hypersexuality) [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] for GBMSM as well as having produced influential work on topics ranging from understanding intentional condomless sex (i.e., barebacking) [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] and methamphetamine use [22] [23] [24] [25] to developing efficacious interventions to reduce substance use and HIV-related health risk behaviors. [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] Parsons developed an intervention for young GBMSM that showed an effect at reducing both substance use and sexual risk [36] and was the first intervention for this population designated as a "Best Evidence" Effective Behavioral Intervention (EBI) by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the U.S. [37] [38] Parsons authored and co-authored more than 320 peer-reviewed publications, [39] more than 500 conference abstracts, and 11 book chapters as well as having been Editor of one book; [40] his work has received extensive popular media coverage.

Parsons was funded by several federal research grants between 1990 and 2019. In 1996, he founded the Center for HIV/AIDS Educational Studies & Training (CHEST) to “conduct research to identify and promote strategies that prevent the spread of HIV and improve the lives of people living with HIV.” [3] Since that time, Parsons received more than $55 million USD in funding as Principal Investigator from the National Institutes of Health (including the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and other federal agencies. [41]

Career

Parsons was appointed as a Research Psychologist at the Mount Sinai Hemophilia Treatment Center in New York City from 1991 to 1997 and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at New Jersey City University from 1992 to 1997. Shortly after founding CHEST, Parsons was promoted to Associate Professor at New Jersey City University in 1997, where he remained until he moved to Hunter College of the City University of New York in 2000. Parsons was granted tenure at Hunter College in 2003 and promoted to Full Professor in 2005; he served as the Chair of the Department of Psychology from 2008 to 2010 and was subsequently promoted to Distinguished Professor at the recommendation of Hunter's President, Jennifer Raab, and concurrence of the CUNY Board of Trustees in 2012.

Parsons held several concurrent positions while at Hunter College. He was appointed to the Doctoral Faculty in Psychology at the Graduate School & University Center (“The Graduate Center”) of CUNY in 2005 and served as Director of the Health Psychology Concentration from 2005 to 2008. From 2008 to 2016, he also served on the Doctoral Faculty in Public Health at the Graduate Center of CUNY. Parsons was Founding Chair of the Faculty Steering Committee for the LGBT Social Science and Public Policy Center at Hunter College's Roosevelt House from 2008 to 2012. Between 2012 and 2019, he was on the faculty of the Graduate Center's PhD program in Health Psychology and Clinical Science. [42]

Parsons has served in several editorial capacities for peer-reviewed journals in the field. He was previously editor-in-chief of Sexuality Research and Social Policy as well as Associate Editor of Archives of Sexual Behavior and AIDS and Behavior . He has also been on the Editorial Boards of AIDS Education and Prevention, International Journal of Sexual Health, Human Sexuality, and LGBT Health .

Parsons served as Chair of the NIH’s Behavioral and Social Consequences of HIV study section [43] from 2010 to 2012 after having served as a regular member of the same study section from 2007 to 2010. He was the President of the Eastern Region of the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality from 2005 to 2007 and served on the Board of Directors for the Society for the Advancement of Sexual Health from 2003 to 2008.

On July 3, 2019 Jeffrey Parsons resigned his position at CUNY, following a year-long investigation by the university of allegations against him related to improper drug and alcohol use and of sexual improprieties at the university affiliated events that he hosted. [5] [6] [44] [45] The investigation found that he violated CUNY’s policy on sexual misconduct and engaged “in behavior that violated CUNY’s Drug and Alcohol Policy”. [5] Following Parson's resignation, the Hunter College renamed CHEST into PRIDE, which stands for Promoting Resilience, Intersectionality, Diversity and Equity. [7] Subsequently, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York settled a civil lawsuit against Dr. Parsons for using National Institute of Health grant funding for personal trips. In the settlement Dr. Parsons agreed to pay $375,000, Hunter College agreed to pay $200,000 and made detailed factual admissions regarding their conduct. [46]

Honors and awards

Parsons was named Fellow of the American Psychological Association in 2008, [47] the Society of Behavioral Medicine in 2012, and the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality in 2012. He received the Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award in from the American Psychological Association's Division 44 in 2008, [48] the John Money Award from the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality in 2011, [49] and the Psychology and AIDS Distinguished Leadership Award from the American Psychological Association in 2017.

The AIDS epidemic, caused by HIV, found its way to the United States between the 1970s and 1980s, but was first noticed after doctors discovered clusters of Kaposi's sarcoma and pneumocystis pneumonia in homosexual men in Los Angeles, New York City, and San Francisco in 1981. Treatment of HIV/AIDS is primarily via the use of multiple antiretroviral drugs, and education programs to help people avoid infection.

Down-low is an Black-American slang term specifically used within the Black-American community that typically refers to a sexual subculture of Black men who usually identify as heterosexual but actively seek sexual encounters and relations with other men, practice gay cruising, and frequently adopt a specific hip-hop attire during these activities. They generally avoid disclosing their same-sex sexual activities, even if they have female sexual partner(s), they are married to a woman, or they are single. The term is also used to refer to a related sexual identity. Down-low has been viewed as "a type of impression management that some of the informants use to present themselves in a manner that is consistent with perceived norms about masculine attribute, attitudes, and behavior".

Men who have sex with men (MSM) are male persons who engage in sexual activity with members of the same sex. The term was created in the 1990s by epidemiologists to study the spread of disease among all men who have sex with men, regardless of sexual identity, to include, for example, male prostitutes. The term is often used in medical literature and social research to describe such men as a group for research studies. It does not describe any specific sexual activity, and which activities are covered by the term depends on context.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Bareback (sexual act)</span> Physical sexual activity, especially sexual penetration, without the use of a condom

Bareback sex is physical sexual activity, especially sexual penetration, without the use of a condom. The topic primarily concerns anal sex between men who have sex with men without the use of a condom, and may be distinguished from unprotected sex because bareback sex denotes the deliberate act of forgoing condom use.

A syndemic or synergistic epidemic is the aggregation of two or more concurrent or sequential epidemics or disease clusters in a population with biological interactions, which exacerbate the prognosis and burden of disease. The term was developed by Merrill Singer in the early 1990s to call attention to the synergistic nature of the health and social problems facing the poor and underserved. Syndemics develop under health disparity, caused by poverty, stress, or structural violence and are studied by epidemiologists and medical anthropologists concerned with public health, community health and the effects of social conditions on health.

Serosorting, also known as serodiscrimination, is the practice of using HIV status as a decision-making point in choosing sexual behavior. The term is used to describe the behavior of a person who chooses a sexual partner assumed to be of the same HIV serostatus in order to engage in unprotected sex with them for a reduced risk of acquiring or transmitting HIV/AIDS.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">HIV-affected community</span> Medical condition

The affected community is composed of people who are living with HIV and AIDS, plus individuals whose lives are directly influenced by HIV infection. This originally was defined as young to middle aged adults who associate with being gay or bisexual men, and or injection drug users. HIV-affected community is a community that is affected directly or indirectly affected by HIV. These communities are usually influenced by HIV and undertake risky behaviours that lead to a higher chance of HIV infection. To date HIV infection is still one of the leading cause of deaths around the world with an estimate of 36.8 million people diagnosed with HIV by the end of 2017, but there can particular communities that are more vulnerable to HIV infection, these communities include certain races, gender, minorities, and disadvantaged communities. One of the most common communities at risk is the gay community as it is commonly transmitted through unsafe sex. The main factor that contributes to HIV infection within the gay/bisexual community is that gay men do not use protection when performing anal sex or other sexual activities which can lead to a higher risk of HIV infections. Another community will be people diagnosed with mental health issues, such as depression is one of the most common related mental illnesses associated with HIV infection. HIV testing is an essential role in reducing HIV infection within communities as it can lead to prevention and treatment of HIV infections but also helps with early diagnosis of HIV. Educating young people in a community with the knowledge of HIV prevention will be able to help decrease the prevalence within the community. As education is an important source for development in many areas. Research has shown that people more at risk for HIV are part of disenfranchised and inner city populations as drug use and sexually transmitted diseases(STDs) are more prevalent. People with mental illnesses that inhibit making decisions or overlook sexual tendencies are especially at risk for contracting HIV.

Discrimination against people with HIV/AIDS or serophobia is the prejudice, fear, rejection, and stigmatization of people with HIV/AIDS. Marginalized, at-risk groups such as members of the LGBTQ+ community, intravenous drug users, and sex workers are most vulnerable to facing HIV/AIDS discrimination. The consequences of societal stigma against PLHIV are quite severe, as HIV/AIDS discrimination actively hinders access to HIV/AIDS screening and care around the world. Moreover, these negative stigmas become used against members of the LGBTQ+ community in the form of stereotypes held by physicians.

Since reports of emergence and spread of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the United States between the 1970s and 1980s, the HIV/AIDS epidemic has frequently been linked to gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) by epidemiologists and medical professionals. It was first noticed after doctors discovered clusters of Kaposi's sarcoma and pneumocystis pneumonia in homosexual men in Los Angeles, New York City, and San Francisco in 1981. The first official report on the virus was published by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) on June 5, 1981 and detailed the cases of five young gay men who were hospitalized with serious infections. A month later, The New York Times reported that 41 homosexuals had been diagnosed with Kaposi's sarcoma, and eight had died less than 24 months after the diagnosis was made.

Risky sexual behavior is the description of the activity that will increase the probability that a person engaging in sexual activity with another person infected with a sexually transmitted infection will be infected or become pregnant, or make a partner pregnant. It can mean two similar things: the behavior itself, and the description of the partner's behavior. The behavior could be unprotected vaginal, oral, or anal intercourse. The partner could be a nonexclusive partner, HIV-positive, or an intravenous drug user. Drug use is associated with risky sexual behaviors.

The first case of HIV in a woman was recorded in 1981. Since then, numerous women have been infected with the HIV/AIDS virus. The majority of HIV/AIDS cases in women are directly influenced by high-risk sexual activities, injectional drug use, the spread of medical misinformation, and the lack of adequate reproductive health resources in the United States. Women of color, LGBTQ women, homeless women, women in the sex trade, and women intravenous drug users are at an extremely high-risk for contracting the HIV/AIDS virus. In an article published by the Annual Review of Sociology, Celeste Watkins Hayes, an American sociologist, scholar, and professor wrote, "Women are more likely to be forced into survival-focused behaviors such as transactional sex for money, housing, protection, employment, and other basic needs; power-imbalanced relationships with older men; and other partnerings in which they cannot dictate the terms of condom use, monogamy, or HIV." The largest motivator to become part of the sex trade was addiction, the second largest being basic needs, and the third was to support their children/family.
