To explore sexual sensation seeking (SSS) among an ethnically-diverse sample of first-year college students and their hookup behaviors.
1,480 first-year college students who hooked up in the last 30 days were recruited from four universities in 2016.
Students completed an online survey before completing an online STI and alcohol prevention intervention.
Male and sexual minority students had significantly higher SSS scores compared to female and heterosexual students respectively. Students with higher SSS scores were less likely to report condom use at last vaginal and anal hookup, more likely to hookup under the influence of alcohol and participate in a wide range of sexual behaviors. There were no significant mean differences in SSS scores by level of intoxication during their last hookup.
These findings highlight the role of SSS in predicting sexual risk behaviors of first-year college students and the overall low SSS scores among this sample.
探索种族多样化的大一学生群体的性感觉寻求（SSS）倾向以及他们的 hookup 行为。
2016 年，从四所大学招募了 1480 名在过去 30 天内有过 hookup 经历的大一学生。
学生们在完成在线 STI 和酒精预防干预之前完成了在线调查。
与女性和异性恋学生相比，男性和性少数群体学生的 SSS 得分明显更高。SSS 得分较高的学生在最近的阴道和肛门 hookup 中使用安全套的可能性较小，在酒精影响下 hookup 和参与各种性行为的可能性较大。在最后一次 hookup 期间的醉酒程度方面，SSS 得分没有显著的均值差异。
这些发现强调了 SSS 在预测大一学生的性风险行为方面的作用，以及该样本中整体较低的 SSS 得分。
