摘要

参与危险的性行为会导致青少年感染艾滋病毒、性传播疾病和意外怀孕。由于多种原因,大学生的性风险更大。因此,本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚西北部因吉巴拉大学普通本科生中危险性行为的严重程度和相关因素。研究采用多阶段抽样法选出了 770 名学生。数据采用半结构式自填问卷收集。采用二元逻辑回归模型确定与危险性行为相关的因素。共有 770 名学生参与了研究,回复率为 100%。在这项研究中,294 名学生(38%,95% CI:35%,42%)有过危险性行为。危险性行为与以下因素明显相关:未接受 HIV 检测(AOR = 1.62,95% CI:1.15-2.31)、同伴压力(AOR = 1.90,CI:1.37-2.64)、HIV 基本知识(AOR = 2.16,CI:1.65-2.89)、药物使用(AOR = 3.在本研究中,相当一部分大学生参与了不安全的性行为。当学生受到同伴压力、使用药物、未感知 HIV 风险、观看色情电影以及缺乏基本的 HIV 知识时,更有可能发生危险的性行为。因此,应设计有针对性的战略干预措施,如生活技能培训,以在大学生中实现积极的行为改变。

Prevalence of risky sexual behavior and associated factors among Injibara University students, Northwest Ethiopia
Engaging in risky sexual behaviors can lead to HIV infection, sexually transmitted infections, and unintended pregnancy among youths. University students had greater sexual risks for many reasons. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the magnitude and associated factors of risky sexual behaviors among regular undergraduate students at Injibara University, Northwest Ethiopia.A cross-sectional study was conducted at Injibara University from 20 January to 30 2020. Multistage sampling was employed to select 770 students. Data were collected using a semistructured self-administered questionnaire. A binary logistic regression model was used to identify factors associated with risky sexual behavior. Adjusted odds ratios with 95% CIs were determined, and variables with P-values <0.05 were considered significant.A total of 770 students participated in the study, providing a response rate of 100%. In this study, 294 (38%, 95% CI: 35%, 42%) students engaged in risky sexual behaviors. Risky sexual behavior was significantly associated with not tested for HIV (AOR = 1.62, 95% CI: 1.15–2.31), peer pressure (AOR = 1.90, CI: 1.37–2.64), basic HIV knowledge (AOR = 2.16, CI: 1.65–2.89), substance use (AOR = 3.56, CI: 2.11–6.06), watching pornography videos (AOR = 1.58, CI: 1.11–2.23), and HIV risk perception (AOR = 1.37, CI: 1.02–1.91).A substantial proportion of university students in this study engaged in unsafe sexual behavior. Risky sexual behaviors are more likely to occur when students are under peer pressure, use substances, have no perceived HIV risk, watch pornography, and have inadequate basic HIV knowledge. Therefore, tailored strategic interventions such as life skill training should be designed to bring about positive behavioral changes among university students.
