We examine potential use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among young adult women, based on nationally representative random-digit dial telephone household survey of 1,453 US African-American and white women. The hypotheses were generated based on Health Belief Model. Our analyses showed that, as compared to women of 30-45 years old, young women of 20-29 years old experienced stronger social influences on PrEP uptake. However, as compared to older women, young women did not report higher potential PrEP uptake or adherence, despite their greater risk of HIV. For PrEP to be an effective method of prevention for young adult women, interventions are needed to increase HIV risk awareness.
基于对1453名美国非裔美国人和白人女性进行的具有全国代表性的随机数字拨号电话家庭调查，我们研究了年轻成年女性中暴露前预防（PrEP）的潜在用途。这些假设是基于健康信念模型得出的。我们的分析表明，与30至45岁的女性相比，20至29岁的年轻女性在接受PrEP方面受到的社会影响更大。然而，与年长女性相比，尽管年轻女性感染艾滋病毒的风险更高，但她们报告的PrEP潜在接受率或依从性并不更高。为了使PrEP成为年轻成年女性有效的预防方法，需要采取干预措施来提高对艾滋病毒风险的认识。
