The objective of this study was to determine the contributions of a range of psychosocial, demographic and behavioural variables to gay men's intentions to take an HIV test. A cross-sectional self-report survey was undertaken. Researchers approached patrons of all known gay bars in Glasgow and Edinburgh during May 2000. Questionnaires were completed by 803 men (response rate of 78%). Those with a stronger intention to test had previously tested, and they were younger, with two or more recent unprotected anal sex partners. They perceived their HIV status to be unknown, had less fear of a positive test result, and perceived more benefits of testing. Intention to test in those with two or more recent unprotected anal sex partners was attenuated if accompanied by increased fear of a positive test result. Results are considered in the context of the theories of reasoned action and planned behaviour. Intention to test is far from a unitary phenomenon, and the existence of various sub-groups within the gay population demands a new approach to both research and health promotion.
本研究旨在确定一系列社会心理、人口统计学和行为变量对男同性恋者进行 HIV 检测意愿的贡献。采用横断面自我报告调查。研究人员在 2000 年 5 月期间接触了格拉斯哥和爱丁堡所有已知的同性恋酒吧的顾客。共有 803 名男性（应答率为 78%）完成了问卷。那些检测意愿较强的人之前已经进行过检测，他们更年轻，最近有两个或更多没有保护措施的肛交性伴侣。他们认为自己的 HIV 状况未知，对阳性检测结果的恐惧较少，并且认为检测有更多的好处。如果与对阳性检测结果的恐惧增加同时存在，最近有两个或更多没有保护措施的肛交性伴侣的人检测意愿会减弱。结果是在理性行为理论和计划行为理论的背景下考虑的。检测意愿远非单一现象，同性恋人群中存在各种亚群，这需要对研究和健康促进采取新的方法。
