This study examined the associations between sexual self-concept (sexual esteem and sexual anxiety) and sexual self-efficacy (situational and resistive) in a sample of 388 high school students (59% Caucasian, 28% African American). Males reported lower sexual esteem and lower sexual self-efficacy than females. Males and African Americans reported higher levels of sexual anxiety and lower levels of resistive self-efficacy than females and Caucasians. In regression models, higher sexual self-esteem uniquely predicted higher sexual self-efficacy scores, even after controlling for demographic variables, knowledge of sexual risk, and previous coital experience. In post hoc analyses, sexual self-esteem mediated the relation between knowledge of sexual risk and both types of sexual self-efficacy. Results suggest the need for interventions to promote male sexual self-efficacy and sexual esteem and the need for longitudinal research that explicates models of sexual health in adolescence.
本研究调查了388名高中生（59%为白人，28%为非裔美国人）样本中性自我概念（性自尊和性焦虑）与性自我效能感（情境性和抵抗性）之间的关联。男性报告的性自尊和性自我效能感低于女性。与女性和白人相比，男性和非裔美国人报告的性焦虑水平更高，抵抗性自我效能感水平更低。在回归模型中，即使在控制了人口统计学变量、性风险知识和既往性交经历后，较高的性自尊仍能独特地预测较高的性自我效能感得分。在事后分析中，性自尊介导了性风险知识与两种性自我效能感之间的关系。结果表明，需要采取干预措施来提高男性的性自我效能感和性自尊，并且需要进行纵向研究以阐明青少年性健康的模型。
