"Hooking up" with friends, strangers, and acquaintances is a popular way for college students to experience sexual intimacy without investing in relationships. Because hooking up often occurs in situations in which prophylactics against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are not available or in which students' judgment is impaired, it can involve risky behaviors that compromise student health. As such, in-depth studies of the factors related to sexual risk taking during hookups are needed, to advance preventive research and programming. Based on semistructured interviews with 71 college students about their hooking-up experiences, the findings of this study demonstrate that the Health Belief Model can serve as a useful framework for understanding sexual risk taking during hooking up, and offers suggestions for sexual risk-prevention programs on college campuses. The results demonstrate why students' assessments of their own and their peers' susceptibility to STIs are often misinformed. The findings also show how situational characteristics, such as spontaneity, undermine students' sexual self-efficacy.
与朋友、陌生人以及熟人发生性关系是大学生在不投入感情的情况下体验性亲密的一种流行方式。因为性行为通常发生在没有使用预防性病(性传播感染)的情况下,或者在学生判断力受损的情况下,所以可能涉及到危及学生健康的危险行为。因此,需要深入研究与性行为期间冒险行为相关的因素,以推进预防研究和计划。基于对 71 名大学生关于性行为的半结构化访谈,这项研究的结果表明,健康信念模型可以作为理解性行为期间冒险行为的有用框架,并为大学校园的性行为预防计划提供建议。研究结果表明,为什么学生对自己和同伴感染性病的易感性的评估往往是错误的。研究结果还表明,如自发性等情境特征如何削弱学生的性自我效能感。
