摘要

虽然一些研究发现了约会软件与社会人口变量、性态度和性风险行为之间的联系，但西班牙的研究很少探讨这些关系。这项研究分析了这个国家使用约会软件和这些变量之间的关系。方法2288名年龄在18岁至35岁之间的人完成了一份问卷，除了社会人口学变量外，问卷还包括约会应用程序的使用情况、对网络性行为的态度以及性风险行为的指标。结果男性使用约会软件的比例高于女性，LGB用户的比例高于异性恋用户。此外，用户对网络性行为的态度比非用户更积极。一般来说，使用者比非使用者拥有更多的性伴侣，尽管他们更频繁地在阴道性交和肛交时使用避孕套。本研究为西班牙约会软件的使用与某些变量之间的关系提供了证据。使用约会软件不一定等同于性风险，但应该继续鼓励使用安全套，尤其是那些有多个性伴侣的人。

Relationship Between use of Dating apps and Sociodemographic Variables, Sexual Attitudes, and Sexual risk Behaviors

Abstract Introduction Although some studies have found a link between dating apps and sociodemographic variables, sexual attitudes, and sexual risk behaviors, few studies in Spain have explored these relationships. This study analyzes the relationship between the use of dating apps and these variables in this country. Method A total of 2288 people aged between 18 and 35 years completed a questionnaire, which, in addition to sociodemographic variables, contained questions on the use of dating apps, a measure of attitudes toward online sexual behaviors, and indicators of sexual risk behaviors. Results The percentage of men using dating apps is higher than that of women, and the percentage of LGB users is higher than that of heterosexuals. In addition, users have more positive attitudes toward online sexual behavior than non-users. In general, users are also found to have more sexual partners than non-users, although they more frequently use condoms for vaginal intercourse and anal sex. Conclusion The present study provides evidence for the relationship between the use of dating apps and certain variables in Spain. Policy Implications Dating apps do not have to be equated with sexual risk, but condom use should continue to be encouraged, especially among those who have multiple sexual partners.
