这项研究在城市同性恋骄傲庆典上对430名男性进行了调查，以评估与男性发生性关系的男性的宿命论、当前生活满意度和预期寿命。分析表明，在排他性关系之外进行无保护肛交的男性比只进行安全性行为的男性和处于排他性关系中的男性报告了更大的宿命观，对生活更不满意，认为自己的寿命更短。在当前生活满意度方面，独占关系中的男同性恋者比非独占性伴侣的男同性恋者得分更高。这些结果表明，预防男同性恋者感染艾滋病毒的努力应该包括建立个人自我价值，支持长期关系，以及未来的目标导向。
This study surveyed 430 men at an urban gay pride celebration to assess fatalism, current life satisfaction, and perceived expected years of life among men who have sex with men. Analyses showed that men who engaged in unprotected anal intercourse outside of exclusive relationships reported a greater fatalistic outlook, were more dissatisfied with life, and perceived a shorter life for themselves than men who practiced only safer sex and men who were in exclusive relationships. Gay men in exclusive relationships scored higher than nonexclusively partnered gay men on the measure of current life satisfaction. These results suggest that efforts to prevent HIV infection among gay men should include building personal self-worth, support of long-term relationships, and future goal orientations.
