摘要

据报道,自 2011 年以来,加拿大年轻成年人中性传播感染和危险性行为的发生率不断上升。然而,尽管在北美大陆高等教育机构就读的海外学生人数不断增加,但有关北美留学生性风险行为的研究却十分有限。本文分享了对加拿大三个省(马尼托巴省、安大略省、魁北克省)五所高等教育机构中留学生和国内学生性行为的研究结果比较。242 名留学生和 1220 名国内学生参加了网上和纸质双语调查。与国际男生、国内男生和国内女生相比,国际女生的性活跃程度较低。留学生参与许多危险性行为的可能性要低得多,如不坚持使用安全套以及在饮酒或吸毒后发生计划外性行为。然而,与国内男生相比,国际男生更有可能报告自己有多个性伴侣。这些研究结果对那些在加拿大校园内为大专学生提供咨询和建议的人以及医疗保健从业人员都很有意义,有助于他们更好地了解大专学生的性行为。加强性健康和性知识的策略包括在中学后教育机构中有针对性地推广安全性行为和性教育。

Sexual health practices: A comparison of international and domestic students on Canadian campuses
Since 2011, an increasing incidence of sexually transmitted infections and risky sexual practices has been reported among young adults in Canada. However, research on sexual risk behaviours of international students in North America is limited, despite an increasing number of students from abroad attending higher education institutions on this continent. This article shares research findings comparing the sexual practices of international and domestic students in five postsecondary institutions in three Canadian provinces (Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec). Two hundred forty-two international students and 1220 domestic students took part in the bilingual online and paper-based survey. Female international students were less likely to be sexually active than international male, domestic male, and domestic female students. International students were significantly less likely to partake in many risky sexual behaviours, such as inconsistent condom use and unplanned sex after consuming alcohol or drugs. However, male international students were more likely to report having multiple sexual partners than male domestic students. These findings are relevant to those who counsel and advise postsecondary students on Canadian campuses and for healthcare practitioners to better understand postsecondary students’ sexual practices. Strategies to enhance sexual health and knowledge include targeted promotion of safe sexual practices and sexual education in postsecondary institutions.
