R. Simon; Sexual Health Research at the University of Minnesota (SHRUM) Program"Training for Health Professionals” was a randomized, controlled, single-blind, trial conducted at Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. As part of the study, 412 medical, nursing and midwifery students were stratified by discipline, completed baseline assessments, then randomized to attend a 4-day sexual health workshop (intervention, n=206) or to a waitlist control (n=206). The workshop curriculum covered sexual health across the lifespan, male and female sexual dysfunctions, key populations (LGBT), sexual violence, clinical skills building, ethics, policy writing, and cultural considerations. Primary outcomes were sexual health knowledge, attitudes, and clinical skills. The primary outcomes of sexual health knowledge and attitudes were assessed at baseline, post-intervention (intervention group only), and 3-month follow-up via a quantitative survey. This survey also included demographic information, education background, and evaluation of the sexual health workshop. The primary outcome of clinical skills was assessed at baseline and 3-month follow-up via videotaped standardized patient (SP) interviews. Each of the videos (2 at baseline, 2 at follow-up) was independently rated by an expert (a faculty member) and the patient (the SP actor). After each interview participants completed a survey reflecting on their performance as a student clinician. At the end of the follow-up videos, participants completed a survey evaluating the standardized patient experience (SPE). In sum, this record includes an Excel file with the data codebook (also provided as six separate CSV files for accessibility) and five CSV data files covering the above outcomes. The responses were de-identified as described below in the README file.
