本研究探讨了父母的投资和社会俱乐部的成员资格是否与南非青年更安全的性行为有关。2002年，4800名年龄在14岁到22岁之间的随机选择的青少年参与了这项研究。使用Logistic回归来检验亲代投资和协会会员与报告的第一次和最近的性行为使用避孕套、HIV知识、年龄、教育程度、人口群体、父母同居和家庭收入的净影响之间的关系。相互作用术语被用来检验风险行为与亲代投资之间以及风险行为与群体成员关系之间的性别差异。参加俱乐部和社区团体与更安全的行为有关。母亲的经济支持（服装、学费、校服和零用钱）与避孕套的使用呈负相关，特别是在年轻女性中，这表明物质需求促使她们容易发生高风险行为。家庭和社区中的社会资源调解了开普敦青年中的艾滋病毒风险行为。
This study examines whether parental investment and membership in social clubs are associated with safer sexual behaviors among South African youth. Participants comprised 4,800 randomly selected adolescents age 14 to 22 living in the Cape Town area in 2002. Logistic regression was used to examine associations between measures of parental investment and associational membership with reported condom use at first and most recent sexual intercourse, net of effects of HIV knowledge, age, education, population group, parental coresidence, and household income. Interaction terms were used to examine gender differences in associations between risk behavior and parental investment and between risk behavior and group membership. Participation in clubs and community groups is associated with safer behaviors. A mother's financial support (for clothing, school fees and uniforms, and pocket money) is negatively associated with condom use, particularly among young women, suggesting that material need impels vulnerability to higher risk behaviors. Social resources in households and communities mediate HIV risk behaviors among youth in Cape Town.
