Hispanic men who have sex with men (HMSM) experience HIV risk-related and mental health disparities. The relationship of mental health (i.e., depressive symptoms and anxiety) on sexual risk behaviors of HMSM has been reported. However, little is known about the influence of impulsivity and compulsivity on sexual risk behaviors. A cross-sectional study explored these factors among 150 HMSM in the El Paso, Texas area utilizing standardized measures, in a cross-sectional study. Regression analysis determined the influence of sexual impulsivity and compulsivity, and demographic variables on sexual risk behaviors, indicating interventions should target these behaviors to mitigate sexual risk among HMSM.
与男性发生性关系的西班牙裔男性(HMSM)面临与艾滋病毒风险相关的问题以及心理健康差异。已有报告阐述了心理健康(即抑郁症状和焦虑)与HMSM性风险行为之间的关系。然而,关于冲动性和强迫性对性风险行为的影响却知之甚少。一项横断面研究在得克萨斯州埃尔帕索地区对150名HMSM进行了调查,采用标准化测量方法探讨了这些因素。回归分析确定了性冲动性和强迫性以及人口统计学变量对性风险行为的影响,表明干预措施应针对这些行为以降低HMSM中的性风险。
