本文报告了与女性商业性工作者 (CSW) 发生性关系的拉丁裔日工的特征。使用了洛杉矶 450 名日工的样本。使用多变量逻辑回归来确定自变量与与 CSW 发生性行为的可能性之间的关联。总体而言，450 名日工中，有 26% 的人表示在过去 12 个月内曾与 CSW 发生过性行为。研究发现，受过 6 年以上教育的人以及已婚并与配偶同住的人与 CSW 发生性关系的可能性较低。研究发现，那些符合有害饮酒或药物依赖标准的人与 CSW 发生性关系的可能性更高。商业性工作与 CSW 客户中的性传播感染和其他问题有关，值得与日工合作的提供者进一步关注。
This article reports the characteristics of Latino day laborers who have sex with female commercial sex workers (CSWs). A sample of 450 day laborers in Los Angeles was used. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the association of independent variables with the likelihood of having sex with a CSW. Overall, 26% of the 450 day laborers reported having had sex with a CSW in the previous 12 months. A lower likelihood of having sex with a CSW was found for those with more than 6 years of education and for those who were married and living with their spouses. A higher likelihood of having sex with a CSW was found for those who met the criteria for harmful drinking or drug dependence. Commercial sex work has been associated with sexually transmitted infections and other problems among clients of CSWs and warrants further attention by providers working with day laborers.
