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

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 Factors that Impact Condom Use Self efficacy in Postmenopausal Women

Download or read book Factors that Impact Condom Use Self efficacy in Postmenopausal Women written by Alexis Lee Rose and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: In the 1980's, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) assumed that Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS) grew to epidemic proportions due to unsafe practices by sexually active gay men and intravenous drug users. Policymakers who did not wish to associate themselves with these two populations did not promote educational tactics for prevention among the general population. Times have changed since then, but there are still populations mistakenly assumed to be safe from Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs). Older Baby Boomer Women are in a different world than their mothers and grandmothers. This population also has different sexual histories, emphasizing the need for greater awareness of STDs. There is a need for preventive action to protect older women against STDs, particularly Human Papillomvirus (HPV). This virus causes over 97% of cervical cancer and is related to the causes of vulva, vagina, penis, and oropharynx cancers. Because their rates of STDs are increasing fast, this dissertation strives to examine and explore the factors that impact condom use self-efficacy and sexual activity among postmenopausal women. As a result of improvements in healthcare and a decrease in disability, postmenopausal women experience higher life expectancies and are now becoming victims of STDs. Many women place themselves at greater risk for STDs by not using protection during intercourse. Research Objective: To better understand the factors that impact current condom use self-efficacy among postmenopausal women, the researcher examined factors that also impacted younger populations. Furthermore, this study sought to understand if there are differences of these factors between sexually active and sexually inactive women. Methods: The conceptual framework of this study utilized many assumptions related to the Health Belief Model (HBM) (Rosenstock, 1974), the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) (Ajzen & Fishbein, 1980), the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) (Ajzen &Fishbein, 1980), and the AIDS Risk Reduction Model (ARRM) (Catania, 1990). This exploratory study design examined these factors among a purposive sample recruited at an outpatient OB/GYN clinic in a major hospital. Results: The major findings about condom use and STDs did not differ between sexually active and inactive women. Results are presented in terms of descriptive statistics due to the risk of type 1 errors. On a bivariate level high number of lifetime partners, being aware of HPV, perceiving limited partner barriers, and having positive views about self-perceived behavior control all significantly contributed to higher levels of condom use self-efficacy. The overall results, however, showed a mostly homogeneous group of women in terms of their awareness, attitudes, knowledge, and behaviors. The results of this dissertation emphasize that there is a strong need for more awareness of STD risks. The outcomes of this awareness could lead to more tolerance of condom use and knowledge of risk among this population.
