ABSTRACT

Affect has been linked to risky sexual decision-making and may be particularly important for college students. Research has overlooked the role of affective arousal, rather focusing exclusively on affective valence. Other decision-making factors that may be impacted by affective states, such as sexual abdication (i.e. yielding sexual decision-making), have also been disregarded. Using a 2 × 2 randomized-factorial design, this experimental study investigated the effects of affective arousal on intentions to engage in condomless sex with heterosexual college students (N = 136; 50% women). Potential indirect effects of sexual abdication were also explored. Results demonstrated no main effect of affective arousal on intentions to engage in condomless sex, yet indicated an indirect effect through sexual abdication. This is the first experimental data about the relationship between affective arousal and sexual decision-making. Findings suggest affective causes of sexual risk warrant further investigation.

情感唤醒对美国新兴成年大学生风险性决策的影响

摘要

影响与危险的性决策有关,可能对大学生尤为重要。研究忽视了情感唤醒的作用,而只关注情感效价。其他可能受情感状态影响的决策因素,例如性放弃(即产生性决策)也被忽略了。本实验研究采用 2 × 2 随机因子设计,调查了情感唤醒对与异性恋大学生进行无安全套性行为意向的影响(N= 136; 50% 的女性)。还探讨了性放弃的潜在间接影响。结果表明,情感唤起对进行无安全套性行为的意图没有主要影响,但表明通过性放弃有间接影响。这是关于情感唤起与性决策之间关系的第一个实验数据。调查结果表明性风险的情感原因需要进一步调查。
