Abstract:
Alarming S.T.I’s percentages and low condom use motivated this research. Healthcare professional’s risk-behavior and attitudes towards risk-behavior were reviewed. Three hypotheses, aimed to test whether healthcare professionals working with S.T.I’s should have a different attitude, knowledge and behavior to condom use compared to healthcare professionals that did not work with S.T.I’s. Ninety-five participants working at a hospital in middle-Sweden answered a questionnaire, based on the Swedish UNGKAB09 research.

To further understand the predictors of condom use for HIV prevention, this cross-sectional study surveyed 276 heterosexually active couples, between the ages of 16 and 29, who had been dating for less than one year.

Study objectives were to examine: (1) whether variables previously associated with condom use in studies of individuals (i.e., communication, attitudes toward condoms, knowledge, relationship variables), were associated with condom use in the context of the couple relationship; (2) whet

Abstract:
With the spread of the Human Immuno-Deficiency Virus and sexually transmitted diseases, it is extremely important for sexually active individuals to protect themselves properly if they decide to engage in sexual intercourse. Knowledge of HIV and the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome has been associated with safer sexual practices, but knowledge alone does not totally explain risky sexual practices. This study examined how 154 college students' knowledge of HIV/AIDS, relationship status, perceptions of condom use, and perceptions of personal risk affect condom use during sexual intercourse. T

The absence of consistent and correct usage of condoms increases the risk of STI's and HIV/AIDS. However, most studies done to date across the nation indicate a low usage of condoms among college students. In fall of 2004, the National College Health Assessment was administered to a random sample of students at a state comprehensive university in south central Kentucky. Findings revealed that among the sexually active students, approximately half never used condoms during vaginal intercourse.

Abstract:
The state of global health and wellbeing is threatened by the pervasive and dangerous decision to engage in unprotected sex. Only male or female condoms can prevent the spread of both sexually transmitted infections and unintended pregnancies. Despite this, condoms remain dangerously underused because of the perception that they diminish sexual pleasure. The pleasure gap in the design and promotion of condoms cripples sexual health outcomes. Acknowledging and harnessing the power of pleasure in sexual-decision making is key to increasing condom use.

To prevent unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections, sexually active individuals should practice safer sex (World Health Organisation 2008).

The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) has been used to predict behaviour, and develop safer sex interventions (Fishbein and Ajzen 2010).

Coital frequency is an important theoretical determinant of the rate at which an STI can spread through a population.

Data on sexual behaviour are widely available from surveys but detailed information on coital frequency is seldom collected.
