This study compared women who sex trade for drugs, money, or both compared to neither (did not sex trade), and introduced the concept of trait displaced aggression to the literature on sex trading.
Female participants (n=1055) were recruited from a low-income area of southern California. Measures included: the Risk Behavior Assessment (RBA), Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS), Eysenck Impulsiveness Scale (EIS), and the Displaced Aggression Questionnaire (DAQ).
Women who traded sex for both drugs and money used crack cocaine, powder cocaine, and alcohol significantly more, scored higher on the BIS, and the EIS, and were significantly older. Those who only sex traded for drugs used more amphetamine, heroin, and injected drugs more days. They were also higher on the DAQ and all of the DAQ subscales. Those who traded for money only used marijuana more and were more likely to use marijuana before sex.
This study may help address specific issues unique to those who sex trade for different commodities in that the drugs used are different and the underlying personality characteristics are different.
本研究比较了以性交易换取毒品、金钱或两者皆换的女性与两者皆不换（即不进行性交易）的女性，并将特质性替代攻击概念引入性交易文献。
从南加州的一个低收入地区招募了女性参与者（n = 1055）。测量方法包括：风险行为评估（RBA）、巴拉特冲动性量表（BIS）、艾森克冲动性量表（EIS）和替代攻击问卷（DAQ）。
以性交易换取毒品和金钱的女性使用快克可卡因、粉末可卡因和酒精的频率显著更高，在BIS和EIS上得分更高，且年龄显著更大。仅以性交易换取毒品的女性使用安非他命、海洛因的频率更高，注射毒品的天数更多。她们在DAQ及其所有子量表上的得分也更高。仅以性交易换取金钱的女性使用大麻更多，且更有可能在性行为前使用大麻。
本研究可能有助于解决那些以性交易换取不同物品的人所特有的特定问题，因为所使用的毒品不同，潜在的人格特征也不同。
