Street-level prostitution is notoriously difficult to escape and rarely do women exit prostitution on their first attempt or without experiencing serious negative consequences to their physical or mental health. Unfortunately, few theories exist that explain the exiting process and those that do exist are difficult to test quantitatively. This article applies the integrative model of behavioral prediction to examine intentions to exit prostitution through attitudes, norms, and self-efficacy beliefs that underlie a woman's intention to exit prostitution. Constructs unique prostitution--agency and societal context--enhance the model. This theory may explain and predict an exit from street-level prostitution.
街头卖淫是众所周知的难以摆脱的，很少有女性能够在第一次尝试或没有经历严重的身心健康负面影响的情况下退出卖淫。不幸的是，很少有理论可以解释退出过程，而那些存在的理论也很难进行定量测试。本文应用行为预测的综合模型，通过态度、规范和自我效能信念来检验退出卖淫的意图，这些态度、规范和自我效能信念是女性退出卖淫意图的基础。独特的卖淫机构和社会背景增强了这个模型。这个理论可能解释并预测从街头卖淫中退出。
