这项研究的参与者是300名农村出身的墨西哥妇女，她们在该国的村庄出生和长大，属于以下三个群体之一：已婚并与丈夫一起生活在洛杉矶、加州（n = 100）、与移徙工人结婚但生活在墨西哥（n = 100）以及与配偶一起生活在墨西哥（n = 100）。受过培训的女性专业人员在墨西哥和美国用西班牙语进行了面对面的访谈。本研究的目的是确定具体的性行为，在性相关的情况下，应对策略，以及对性交的恐惧和关注。本文分析了这些因素如何使墨西哥农村妇女面临艾滋病毒/艾滋病的风险。它讨论了制定预防艾滋病毒/艾滋病的干预战略的必要性，这些战略应考虑到妇女在传统社会中的有限权力以及在性竞技场中以男性主导、女性顺从为特征的性别角色的文化观念。
Participants in this study were 300 Mexican women of rural origin who were born and raised in villages of that country and who belong to one of three groups: married and living with their husbands in Los Angeles, California (n = 100), married to migrant workers but living in Mexico (n = 100), and living in Mexico with their spouses (n = 100). Trained female professionals conducted face-to-face interviews in Spanish, in Mexico and in the United States. The purpose of this study was to identify specific sexual practices, coping strategies in sex-related situations, and fears and concerns regarding sexual intercourse. This article analyzes how these elements place Mexican rural-origin women at risk for HIV/AIDS. It discusses the need to design intervention strategies to prevent HIV/AIDS that take into consideration the limited power of women in traditional societies and the cultural precepts that promote gender roles characterized by male dominance and female submissiveness in the sexual arena.
