This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this study was to assess the factors that relate to male condom utilization among sexually active African American college women at The University of Tennessee. College women between the ages of 18 to 24 are the most susceptible to contracting a sexually transmitted disease (STD) as they do not perceive themselves to beat risk. It is estimated that each year 12 million new cases of STDs occur and two thirds of those infected are under the age of 25 (Hale & Trumbetta, 1996). Women are among the fastest growing groups being infected with HIV. In 1997, 22% of all reported new cases of AIDS were women and of those 60% were African American. African American women of all ages were approximately 16 times more likely to be diagnosed with HIV than their White counterparts (Wingood & DiClemente, 1998). This study consisted of a convenience sample of 196 African American undergraduate females between the ages of 18 to 24. Participants were recruited through various student organizations affiliated with the Black Cultural Center. The Health Belief Model (HBM) Constructs perceived susceptibility, partner, perceived barriers, turnoffs, hassles, execution relationship concerns, self-efficacy, and cues to action were found to be positively correlated with condom use. There was no correlation between HIV/AIDS level of knowledge, perceived benefits, and perceived susceptibility, self and condom use. A stepwise regression was performed in order to ascertain whether or not the HBM constructs would predict the utilization of male condoms among African American college students. The results indicated that 22% of the variance in condom use could be attributed to the HBM constructs. The strongest predictor of condom use was self-efficacy (beta=.257) and perceived barriers, turnoffs (beta=.232).

Given the high rates of unprotected sexual activity among youth and the need to develop effective intervention programs, it is critical to examine why female condom use is not popular.This book, therefore, provide important information for the concerned body (both governmental and nongovernmental organization) to plan important intervention to improve the service provision and to achieve changes in the service utilization.

Book The Effects of Symbolic Modeling on Self efficacy Beliefs to Negotiate Condom Use Among College aged Women

Download or read book The Effects of Symbolic Modeling on Self efficacy Beliefs to Negotiate Condom Use Among College aged Women written by Diane Rachel Lake and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AIDS is a serious health threat to college-aged people, due to their risky sexual behavior. To date, there remains no cure for AIDS, thus the only available weapon against the disease is education. Studies show that college students have knowledge and awareness of AIDS, but still do not practice safer sex by using condoms. This study tests the effects of symbolic modeling, a component of self-efficacy theory, on college-aged women's beliefs of self-efficacy that they can negotiate condom use with their partners. The study consists of an experiment comparing two different types of symbolic modeling, verbal and behavioral, and testing for the effectiveness of each in raising participants' levels of self-efficacy

Book The Examination of Safe Sex Message Appeals  Sex  and Emotional Responses on College Students  Condom Use Attitudes  Intentions  and Self efficacy

Download or read book The Examination of Safe Sex Message Appeals Sex and Emotional Responses on College Students Condom Use Attitudes Intentions and Self efficacy written by Danyele Renee Shelton and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inconsistency in the sexual risk prevention literature indicated that there was a need for additional research identifying factors that will increase safe sex behaviors; particularly, condom use, in young adults. The present study attempted to expand the sexual risk prevention literature by examining the impact of different safe sex advertisements and biological sex on the condom use attitudes, condom use intentions, condom use self-efficacy, negative and positive emotional responses of young adults as well as explore the influence of negative and positive emotional responses on the condom use attitudes, condom use intentions, and condom use self-efficacy of young adults. Five hypotheses were examined using a sample of 203 young adults. MANOVA and regression analyses were conducted to examine the study hypotheses. There was partial support for Hypotheses 1 and 3; indicating that female participants reported more positive condom use attitudes than male participants, participants in the negative emotional advertisement and positive emotional advertisement groups reported more positive condom use attitudes than those in the rational advertisement group, and that the negative emotion of guilt was related to condom use attitudes. Hypotheses 2, 4, and 5 were not upheld. Overall, the present study results provide some support for the influence of biological sex, advertisement type, and guilt on the condom use attitudes of young adults. The need to explore different safe sex advertisement formats and more diverse samples of young adults was discussed, including implications and recommendations for future research.

Book Frequency of Condom Use in a Sample of African American College Women and Its Relationship to HIV AIDS Related Attitudes

Download or read book Frequency of Condom Use in a Sample of African American College Women and Its Relationship to HIV AIDS Related Attitudes written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the relationships between HIV/AIDS knowledge, perceived risk and stigmatization, self-efficacy for using condoms, religiosity, and frequency of condom use in a sample of 154 African American college women. Four research questions were proposed: Do participants who engage in greater stigmatizing of PLWHA (people living with HIV/AIDS) participate in less condom usage; is greater HIV/AIDS knowledge positively related to frequency of condom use; does condom self-efficacy act as a mediator between stigmatizing of PLWHA and frequency of condom use; and, does perceived risk for HIV/AIDS act as a mediator between HIV/AIDS knowledge and frequency of condom use. The results showed that none of the three stigma dimensions reported significant correlations with frequency of condom use. Overall, no significant correlations were found between frequency of condom use and any of the other variables (i.e., HIV/AIDS knowledge, and perceived risk), except for condom self-efficacy. A positive correlation was found between condom self-efficacy and frequency of condom use among casual partners (.706, p
