Knowledge of HIV and knowledge of, attitudes to and use of the condom were assessed by a survey of a sample of 778 heterosexual patients attending the genito-urinary medicine clinic at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary. The mean age was 27.4 years for men and 24.5 years for women. Over two-thirds of the men and about half of the women reported more than one sexual partner during the previous year. More than 70% reported having intercourse at least three times each week. Knowledge about HIV transmission and the condom was generally good. Over three quarters of the respondents approved of the use of the condom. However, only 27% male and 24% female respondents reported using the condom, with 11% and 8% respectively using it always. Condom use was associated with a positive attitude to the condom, having received information from the media about the condom, educational status, a belief that condoms prevented sexually transmitted diseases, and having had sex education in school. It was unrelated to age, marital status, the number of sexual partners or the frequency of sexual intercourse. The most common reported reason for not using the condom was use of another form of contraceptive.
通过对格拉斯哥皇家医院泌尿生殖医学门诊的778名异性恋患者样本进行调查，评估了他们对艾滋病毒的了解以及对避孕套的了解、态度和使用情况。男性的平均年龄为27.4岁，女性为24.5岁。超过三分之二的男性和约一半的女性报告称在前一年有不止一个性伴侣。超过70%的人报告每周至少性交三次。对艾滋病毒传播和避孕套的了解总体良好。超过四分之三的受访者赞成使用避孕套。然而，只有27%的男性和24%的女性受访者报告使用过避孕套，其中分别有11%和8%的人总是使用。避孕套的使用与对避孕套的积极态度、从媒体获得有关避孕套的信息、教育程度、认为避孕套可预防性传播疾病以及在学校接受过性教育有关。它与年龄、婚姻状况、性伴侣数量或性交频率无关。报告的不使用避孕套的最常见原因是使用了其他形式的避孕方法。
