The relationship between alcohol and condom use has been studied extensively over the past several decades. Reviews of event-level studies suggest that alcohol's effect on risky sexual behavior are not due to simple main effects, but appear to be dependent upon individual characteristics, and situational or contextual factors. In the current study, we assessed the temporal relationship between daily alcohol consumption and unprotected sexual behavior, taking into account sexual partner type (casual or known) as well as individual and situational characteristics among a group of young female bar drinkers. Greater alcohol consumption was not associated with unprotected sex. However, greater alcohol consumption was associated with an increase in sex (protected and unprotected) with casual partners. Having less HIV knowledge was associated with increased unprotected sex, while greater frequency of drinking in bars was associated with increased protected sex with casual partners. These findings are discussed in terms of possible prevention programs that increase HIV knowledge and decrease alcohol consumption to reduce young women's risky sexual behavior.
在过去几十年中，酒精与避孕套使用之间的关系已得到广泛研究。对事件水平研究的综述表明，酒精对危险性行为的影响不是由于简单的主要影响，而是似乎取决于个体特征以及情境或背景因素。在当前的研究中，我们评估了每日饮酒量与无保护性行为之间的时间关系，同时考虑了性伴侣类型（随意或熟人）以及一群年轻女性酒吧饮酒者的个人和情境特征。饮酒量增加与无保护性行为无关。但是，饮酒量增加与与随意伴侣进行的性行为（保护和非保护）增加有关。艾滋病毒知识较少与无保护性行为增加有关，而在酒吧饮酒频率较高与与随意伴侣进行的保护性行为增加有关。根据可能的预防计划，讨论了这些发现，这些计划旨在增加艾滋病毒知识和减少饮酒量，以减少年轻女性的危险性行为。
