Abstract

Objective:Explore how perceptions of the sex ratio in Black communities’ impact heterosexual Black women’s confidence in negotiating condom use with sex partners and condom use at last sex. Methods: Using log-binomial regression models, we estimated the association between perception of the sex ratio and condom negotiation self-efficacy and condom use at last sex. Results: Perception of the sex ratio among Black women surveyed was not significantly associated with condom negotiation self-efficacy and condom use at last sex. Conclusion: Overall, the results do not demonstrate an association between perception of the sex ratio and condom negotiation self-efficacy and condom use at last sex.

摘要

目的：探索黑人社区对性别比例的看法如何影响异性恋黑人女性在与性伴侣协商安全套使用以及最后一次性行为时使用安全套的信心。方法：使用对数二项式回归模型，我们估计了对性别比例的感知与安全套谈判自我效能和最后一次性行为时安全套使用之间的关联。结果：接受调查的黑人女性对性别比例的看法与安全套谈判自我效能和最后一次性行为时的安全套使用没有显着相关性。结论：总体而言，结果并未表明对性别比例的感知与安全套谈判自我效能感和最后一次性行为时的安全套使用之间存在关联。
