尼日利亚于2004年发起了一项全国多媒体运动（zipup !），以促进年轻人的性节制，作为减少性传播感染和意外怀孕的综合努力的一部分。本研究以全国代表性的未婚青年（15-24岁）为样本，评估了宣传活动对有关禁欲的人际沟通的影响。使用倾向评分匹配技术来创建一个统计上等同于暴露于活动的组的对照组，并评估活动效果。在3388人的抽样调查中，29.1%的人接触过该运动。与活动曝光显著相关的因素包括年龄（OR = 1.08; 95% ci = 1.04-1.12）、城市位置（OR = 1.31; 95% ci = 1.04-1.66）和媒体使用频率。与未接触组相比，运动接触与参与关于禁欲的人际交流的年轻人比例的统计显着增加10.9%相关。
A national multi-media campaign (Zip-Up!) was initiated in Nigeria in 2004 to promote sexual abstinence among young people as part of comprehensive efforts to reduce sexually transmitted infection and unwanted pregnancy. This study assessed the effect of the campaign exposure on interpersonal communication about abstinence among a nationally representative sample of never-married young people (15–24 years). A propensity score matching technique was used to create a comparison group statistically equivalent to the group exposed to the campaign and assess the campaign effect. Of the 3,388 people sampled, 29.1% had been exposed to the campaign. Factors significantly associated with campaign exposure included age (OR = 1.08; 95% C.I. = 1.04–1.12), urban location (OR = 1.31; 95% C.I. = 1.04–1.66), and frequency of media use. Compared to the non-exposed group, campaign exposure was associated with a statistically significant adjusted increase of 10.9% in the proportion of young people who engaged in interpersonal communication about abstinence.
