本研究的目的是确定自我切割,性虐待和心理变量之间的关系,在预测不频繁使用避孕套在293名青少年在密集的精神病治疗。Logistic回归分析表明,女性、白人、曾遭受性虐待、报告较少的冲动控制是自我切割的预测因素。进一步的分析发现,即使在控制了性虐待史和艾滋病毒预防自我效能之后,自割者报告不经常使用避孕套的可能性也是不自割者的3.5倍。自我切割与性风险行为密切相关,应仔细评估从事自我切割的青少年是否有性风险行为。
The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships between self-cutting, sexual abuse, and psychological variables in predicting infrequent condom use among 293 adolescents in intensive psychiatric treatment. Logistic regression analyses indicated that being female, being Caucasian, having been sexually abused, and reporting less impulse control were predictive of self-cutting. Further analysis found that those who self-cut were three and a half times more likely to report infrequent condom use than those who did not self-cut, even after the analysis controlled for sexual abuse history and HIV prevention self-efficacy. Self-cutting is strongly associated with sexual risk behaviors, and adolescents who engage in self-cutting should be assessed carefully for sexual risk behaviors.
