Abstract

Men's condom use resistance (CUR) is common and associated with negative health consequences. CUR can involve both coercive and noncoercive strategies, and like other types of sexual coercion, may be exacerbated by alcohol use. Following sociocultural and feminist theories, the current study examined the associations between adversarial heterosexual beliefs and coercive and noncoercive CUR intentions via sexual entitlement cognitions among sober versus intoxicated men. Non-problem drinking young adult men (N = 282) completed background surveys, an in-lab alcohol administration procedure, and a hypothetical sexual scenario task. Results of multigroup path analysis showed that sexual entitlement cognitions mediated the associations between adversarial heterosexual beliefs and coercive and noncoercive CUR intentions. These associations were of similar strength among sober and intoxicated men. Findings lend support for the use of cognitive behavioral interventions and broader prevention efforts reducing societal messages that support hostile masculinity beliefs and cognitions to reduce CUR.

对抗性异性恋信念，性权利认知和避孕套使用抵抗意图在清醒和醉酒男性：一个多组中介模型

男性避孕套使用抵抗（CUR）很常见，并与负面健康后果有关。性暴力包括强制性和非强制性策略，与其他类型的性胁迫一样，酒精的使用可能会加剧性暴力。根据社会文化和女权主义理论，本研究通过对清醒和醉酒男性的性权利认知，研究了对抗性异性恋信念与强制性和非强制性异性恋意图之间的联系。无问题饮酒的年轻成年男性（N = 282）完成了背景调查、实验室酒精管理程序和假设的性场景任务。多群体路径分析结果表明，性权利认知介导了异性恋对抗性信念与强制性和非强制性异性恋行为意图之间的关联。在清醒和醉酒的男性中，这些关联的强度相似。研究结果支持使用认知行为干预和更广泛的预防措施，减少支持敌对男性信仰和认知的社会信息，以减少CUR。

期刊介绍： Applied Cognitive Psychology seeks to publish the best papers dealing with psychological analyses of memory, learning, thinking, problem solving, language, and consciousness as they occur in the real world. Applied Cognitive Psychology will publish papers on a wide variety of issues and from diverse theoretical perspectives. The journal focuses on studies of human performance and basic cognitive skills in everyday environments including, but not restricted to, studies of eyewitness memory, autobiographical memory, spatial cognition, skill training, expertise and skilled behaviour. Articles will normally combine realistic investigations of real world events with appropriate theoretical analyses and proper appraisal of practical implications.
