To describe (a) demographic characteristics, (b) sexual history, (c) perceived HIV susceptibility, and (d) current sexual behavior, condom use, and alcohol and marijuana use of heterosexual, low-income African American and Hispanic youth categorized as relatively monogamous (n = 577), serial monogamous (n = 171), or nonmonogamous (n = 278).
Data were drawn from personal interviews with a probability sample of low-income youth, age 15 to 24 years, conducted in Detroit in 1991.
Many group differences were found. For example, relatively monogamous youth were most likely to be female and Hispanic and to have engaged in unprotected intercourse. Serial monogamous youth were younger and most likely to have used condoms at last intercourse. Nonmonogamous youth initiated intercourse earlier and were most likely to have experienced oral and anal intercourse and to have used alcohol and marijuana.
Risk reduction programs may need to be tailored differently to accommodate the needs of these three distinct subgroups of youth.
描述(a)人口统计学特征、(b)性史、(c)感知到的感染艾滋病毒易感性,以及(d)被归类为相对一夫一妻制(n = 577)、连续一夫一妻制(n = 171)或非一夫一妻制(n = 278)的异性恋、低收入非裔美国青年和西班牙裔青年的当前性行为、避孕套使用情况以及酒精和大麻使用情况。
数据取自1991年在底特律对15至24岁低收入青年概率样本进行的个人访谈。
发现了许多组间差异。例如,相对一夫一妻制的青年最有可能是女性和西班牙裔,并且有过无保护性行为。连续一夫一妻制的青年年龄较小,并且在最后一次性行为时最有可能使用避孕套。非一夫一妻制的青年开始性行为更早,最有可能有过口交和肛交经历,并且使用过酒精和大麻。
可能需要对降低风险计划进行不同的调整,以满足这三个不同青年亚组的需求。
