无家可归者、英裔澳大利亚人和希腊裔澳大利亚 16 岁青少年接受了有关性行为和性信仰的询问。性冒险的衡量标准包括行为类型、安全套的使用和性伙伴的数量。药物风险通过静脉注射的程度进行评估。吸毒、共用和清洁针头。性信念包括对性焦虑、性唤起、探索和承诺的自我认知。此外，还引出了参与或避免性行为的动机。无家可归青少年的行为模式使他们面临相当大的艾滋病毒感染风险（无论是性风险还是吸毒风险），而且明显高于家庭同龄人。据报道，存在性别刻板的自我认知，无家可归者和英裔澳大利亚青年在自我认知中表现出比希腊裔澳大利亚人更男性化的风格。性偏好的动机不同，无家可归的青少年比在家的青少年更少关心性的后果，更关心自我满足。对于无家可归的女孩来说，性风险较高是因为她们认为性欲更强，而对性活动后果的担忧较少。讨论了有针对性的干预措施的影响。
Homeless, Anglo-Australian and Greek-Australian 16-year-olds were questioned about their sexual behaviour and sexual beliefs. Measures of sexual risk-taking included type of behaviour, condom use and number of partners. Drug risk was assessed by extent of i.v. drug use, and sharing and cleaning needles. Sexual beliefs included self-perceptions of sexual anxiety, arousal, exploration and commitment. In addition, motivations for engaging in, or avoiding, sex were elicited. The behaviour patterns of homeless adolescents placed them at considerable risk of HIV infection for both sexual and drug risk, and significantly more so than their home-based peers. Gender stereotypic self-perceptions were reported, and homeless and Anglo-Australian youths demonstrated a more masculine style in their self-perceptions than were Greek-Australians. Preferred motivations for sex differed, with homeless youths less concerned about the consequences of sex and more with self-gratification than the home-based adolescents. For homeless girls, higher levels of sexual risk were predicted by perceptions of greater arousal and by less concern about the consequences of sexual activity. Implications for targeted interventions are discussed.
