The present study examined the links between alcohol use and condom use, and the nature of the sexual relationship in which these behaviors occurred, and tested the notion that partner type suppresses the negative, direct effects of alcohol use on condom use.
Data were collected as part of face-to-face interviews conducted with 1,417 (54% female) randomly selected young adults (aged 18-25 years) who had had sex in the past 6 months.
Using within-subjects analytic procedures, results showed that both drinking and condom use were more common with casual than with serious sexual partners, as expected. Moreover, consistent with the suppression hypothesis, the relationship between alcohol use and condom use became significant and negative only after controlling for partner type.
These findings suggest that the interrelationships among partner type, alcohol use and condom use are complex and that the processes linking each pair of variables are best understood as part of a larger system of interconnected variables.
本研究探讨了饮酒与使用避孕套之间的联系,以及这些行为发生时的性关系性质,并检验了伴侣类型会抑制饮酒对使用避孕套产生的负面直接影响这一观点。
作为对1417名(54%为女性)年龄在18至25岁之间、在过去6个月内有过性行为的随机抽取的年轻人进行的面对面访谈的一部分收集数据。
使用受试者内分析程序,结果显示,正如预期的那样,与固定性伴侣相比,饮酒和使用避孕套在与临时性伴侣发生性行为时更为常见。此外,与抑制假设一致,仅在控制了伴侣类型后,饮酒与使用避孕套之间的关系才变得显著且呈负相关。
这些发现表明,伴侣类型、饮酒和使用避孕套之间的相互关系是复杂的,并且将每对变量联系起来的过程最好被理解为一个更大的相互关联变量系统的一部分。
