在线社交网络的使用正在迅速增长，特别是在高危人群中，如男男性行为者（MSM）。然而，很少有研究研究在线社交网络使用和高危人群中的性风险行为之间的关系。118名Facebook注册的MSM（60.1%拉丁裔，28%非洲裔美国人; 11.9%其他）从少数MSM经常光顾的在线（社交网站和横幅广告）和离线（当地诊所，餐馆和组织）场所招募。入选标准要求参与者为18岁或以上的男性，在过去12个月内与男性发生过性关系，居住在洛杉矶，并拥有Facebook账户。参与者完成了一项关于他们社交媒体使用和性风险行为的在线调查。多变量回归的结果表明，通过在线社交网络技术结识的性伴侣数量与以下因素的增加有关：1）在过去3个月内以性换取食物、毒品或住宿的可能性; 2）在过去3个月内新伴侣的数量; 3）在过去3个月内男性性伴侣的数量;（4）过去3个月内口交的频率，控制年龄、种族、教育程度和性伴侣总数。了解高危人群中社交媒体性寻求和性风险行为之间的关系将有助于为以人群为重点的艾滋病毒预防和治疗干预措施提供信息。
Online social networking usage is growing rapidly, especially among at-risk populations, such as men who have sex with men (MSM). However, little research has studied the relationship between online social networking usage and sexual risk behaviors among at-risk populations. One hundred and eighteen Facebook-registered MSM (60.1% Latino, 28% African American; 11.9% other) were recruited from online (social networking websites and banner advertisements) and offline (local clinics, restaurants and organizations) venues frequented by minority MSM. Inclusion criteria required participants to be men who were 18 years of age or older, had had sex with a man in the past 12 months, were living in Los Angeles, and had a Facebook account. Participants completed an online survey on their social media usage and sexual risk behaviors. Results from a multivariable regression suggest that number of sexual partners met from online social networking technologies is associated with increased: 1) likelihood of having exchanged sex for food, drugs, or a place to stay within the past 3 months; 2) number of new partners within the past 3 months; 3) number of male sex partners within the past 3 months; and 4) frequency of engaging in oral sex within the past 3 months, controlling for age, race, education, and total number of sexual partners. Understanding the relationship between social media sex-seeking and sexual risk behaviors among at-risk populations will help inform population-focused HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
