This article identifies correlates of condom use self-efficacy using concepts from self-determination theory and gender-power measures. A cross-section of Xhosa-speaking women ( = 238) from Eastern Cape, South Africa, was used to conduct bivariate correlations and multivariate linear regression analyses. Gender equality beliefs and HIV knowledge were positively associated with condom use self-efficacy generally and in risky situations. Condom use self-efficacy generally was also positively associated with power balance attitudes, negative beliefs about intimate partner violence, and positive growth perspective, while the association with hopeless personal perspective was negative. Surprisingly, lack of social support was positively associated with condom use self-efficacy in risky situations. The predictors of condom use self-efficacy identified in this study that may serve as change objectives for future sexual health promotion interventions.
本文运用自我决定理论中的概念和性别权力测量方法，确定了避孕套使用自我效能感的相关因素。来自南非东开普省讲科萨语的女性（n = 238）样本被用于进行双变量相关性分析和多元线性回归分析。性别平等信念和艾滋病毒知识总体上以及在危险情况下与避孕套使用自我效能感呈正相关。避孕套使用自我效能感总体上还与权力平衡态度、对亲密伴侣暴力的负面信念以及积极成长观呈正相关，而与绝望的个人观呈负相关。令人惊讶的是，缺乏社会支持在危险情况下与避孕套使用自我效能感呈正相关。本研究中确定的避孕套使用自我效能感的预测因素可作为未来性健康促进干预措施的改变目标。
