Abstract

This study attempts to design effective messages to promote condom negotiation self-efficacy and safer sex intent among young women in China. An online experiment with 2 (descriptive norm: present versus absent) × 2 (traditional sexual value: high versus low) between-subjects factorial design was conducted on a purposive sample of 241 female Chinese college students. The results demonstrated that culturally tailored messages incorporating descriptive norms information on the popularity of condom negotiation can increase participants' self-efficacy (F(1,237) = 9.01, partial η2 = 0.04, P = 0.003) but not safer sex intent (F(1,237) = 2.80, partial η2 = 0.01, P = 0.096). Participants with a lower level of traditional sexual values had similar levels of condom negotiation self-efficacy as those with a higher level of values: F(1,237) = 2.85, partial η2 = 0.01, P = 0.09. There were no significant interaction effects of traditional sexual value and descriptive norm on condom negotiation self-efficacy and safer sex intent. The findings contribute to the cultural sensitivity perspective in health education in an Eastern context and have implications for public health practitioners and policymakers.

促进中国年轻女性的安全套谈判自我效能:传统性价值观和描述性规范的影响。
本研究试图设计有效的信息来促进中国年轻女性的安全套谈判、自我效能和安全性行为意愿。采用2(描述性规范:在场与缺席)× 2(传统性价值:高与低)受试者因子设计,对241名中国女大学生进行了有目的的在线实验。结果表明,包含避孕套谈判流行程度描述性规范信息的文化定制信息可以提高参与者的自我效能感(F(1,237) = 9.01,偏η2 = 0.04, P = 0.003),但不能提高安全性行为意图(F(1,237) = 2.80,偏η2 = 0.01, P = 0.096)。传统性价值观水平较低的被试与传统性价值观水平较高的被试的安全套协商自我效能感水平相近:F(1,237) = 2.85,偏η2 = 0.01, P = 0.09。传统性价值观和描述性规范对安全套协商自我效能感和安全性行为意图的交互作用不显著。研究结果有助于建立东方背景下健康教育的文化敏感性视角,并对公共卫生从业人员和政策制定者具有启示意义。
