The main aim of the current study was to compare Spanish and Mozambican male and female secondary students, with regard to sexual behaviors and perceptions surrounding the acceptance of condom use.
The participants were 773 secondary students-412 from Spain and 361 from Mozambique, aged from 15 to 17 years old. Data collection was done using questionnaires. Analysis was carried out using multivariate methods.
Spanish adolescents took more precautions than Mozambican adolescents. Furthermore, Spanish adolescents perceived that the acceptance of condom use by their referents were higher than those reported by the Mozambican adolescents. Among Spanish youths, only the perceived acceptance of their current partner predicted condom use in their most recent sexual encounter.
Differences in the decision-making power of males and females and the type of partner might explain the differences observed in the preventive behavior of the students in both countries.
本研究的主要目的是比较西班牙和莫桑比克的男女中学生,了解他们在接受避孕套使用方面的性行为和认知。
参与者为 773 名中学生,其中 412 名来自西班牙,361 名来自莫桑比克,年龄在 15 至 17 岁之间。通过问卷收集数据。采用多元方法进行分析。
西班牙青少年比莫桑比克青少年采取了更多的预防措施。此外,西班牙青少年认为他们的参照人群对避孕套的接受程度高于莫桑比克青少年的报告。在西班牙青少年中,只有对当前伴侣的接受程度预测了他们最近一次性行为中使用避孕套的情况。
男女决策能力的差异和伴侣类型可能解释了这两个国家学生预防行为的差异。
