Three groups of San Francisco bar patrons (heterosexual men, heterosexual women, and gay men) were compared on four sexual risk reduction strategies for AIDS: safer sex practices (particularly adoption of the use of condoms), reducing the number of sexual partners, taking the HIV antibody test, and determining the characteristics of a potential sexual partner. Heterosexuals reported fewer sex partners and were more likely than gay men to interview potential partners. Gay men were more likely to use condoms and the HIV antibody test than their heterosexual counterparts. These findings encourage the design of interventions that take advantage of shaping and reinforcing strategies already in use in each group, and suggest when it is necessary to teach new strategies.
对旧金山酒吧的三组顾客(异性恋男性、异性恋女性和男同性恋者)在预防艾滋病的四种性风险降低策略方面进行了比较:安全性行为(特别是采用使用避孕套的方式)、减少性伴侣数量、进行艾滋病毒抗体检测以及确定潜在性伴侣的特征。异性恋者报告的性伴侣较少,并且比男同性恋者更有可能与潜在伴侣进行面谈。与异性恋者相比,男同性恋者更有可能使用避孕套和进行艾滋病毒抗体检测。这些发现鼓励设计干预措施,利用每组中已经在使用的塑造和强化策略,并表明何时有必要教授新的策略。
