本研究探讨了MDMA(摇头丸)、性行为和性冒险之间的关系。样本包括98名现在和以前的MDMA使用者。在1997年和1998年期间,采用了几种策略来征聘答复者,并通过深入访谈收集了数据。大多数受访者在访谈前的6个月期间使用过MDMA,很大一部分人使用过该药物100次或更多。大多数受访者报告说,在服用MDMA时,他们有情感上的亲密感,但没有插入性行为的欲望。然而,其他人报告说MDMA增加了性唤起,一些受访者(特别是同性恋和双性恋女性)专门使用MDMA来增强性。在MDMA发作期间有过性行为的受访者中,性冒险行为(如有多个性伴侣、无套性行为)普遍存在。对研究结果进行了解释,并讨论了预防/干预的意义。
This study examines the relationship between MDMA (Ecstasy), sexual behavior, and sexual risk taking. The sample consisted of 98 current and former users of MDMA. Several strategies were utilized to recruit respondents and data were collected through in-depth interviews during 1997 and 1998. The majority of respondents had used MDMA during the 6-month period prior to the interview and a large percentage had consumed the drug on 100 occasions or more. Most respondents reported feelings of emotional closeness while consuming MDMA but without the desire for penetrative sex. Others, however, reported that MDMA increased sexual arousal and some respondents (in particular, gay and bisexual females) had used MDMA specifically for sexual enhancement. Sexual risk taking (e.g., having multiple partners, engaging in sex without a condom) was prevalent among respondents who did engage in sexual activity during MDMA episodes. Explanations for thefindings are offered and implications for prevention/intervention are discussed.
