P.I.: David J. Moore, Ph.D.
Both bipolar disorder and HIV infection can impact cognitive abilities such as ability to remember, pay attention, and perform problem solving tasks. These cognitive difficulties can create problems for daily functioning activities such as paying the bills and managing medications. In addition, things such as substance abuse, mood instability, and cognitive problems might prevent people from taking their medications on a consistent basis.

The primary aim of this study is to clarify the nature and extent of prospective memory impairment in persons who use methamphetamine. Prospective memory is a unique kind of memory that describes one's ability to "remember to remember" and plays a vital role in performing normal daily functions. We are particularly interested in the role that prospective memory impairment may play in the extent to which people who use methamphetamine engage in HIV transmission risk behaviors.
