避孕套发放方案是预防性传播感染的一个重要手段;然而，很少有研究审查其对大学校园的感知和实际影响。定量、横断面研究。美国东南部的一所大型公立大学。大约2个月后，校园范围内的避孕套分发计划开始，我们利用拦截调查与355名学生（68%的妇女，43%的种族/少数民族），以检查他们的看法的可用性，可及性和可接受性的避孕套，他们的看法和使用新安装的避孕套分配器。学生认为安全套是可用的，并在校园内实施安全套分配器。学生们从其他人（36%），社交媒体（18%）和校园报纸（15%）中听说过配药器。大多数学生（71%）见过分配器。近四分之一的学生（23%）从分发器中取过避孕套;在分发器可用的20个月内性活跃的学生中，33%使用过避孕套。超过三分之一的学生（37%）和53%的性活跃学生表示打算在未来6个月内使用自动售货机。控制年龄、性别和种族的多元回归分析显示，之前使用避孕套、对分配器的态度以及对分配器的舒适度是性活跃学生使用分配器意图的重要预测因素（p<.001）。总体而言，结果表明，在短时间内，这一避孕套分发方案成功地向学生提供了免费避孕套。实施避孕套分发计划在大学校园以及未来的研究方向的影响进行了讨论。
Condom distribution programmes are an important means of preventing sexually transmitted infections (STIs); yet little research has examined their perceived and actual impact on college campuses. Quantitative, cross-sectional study. Large public university in the Southeastern USA. Approximately 2 months after a campus-wide condom distribution programme began, we utilised intercept surveys with 355 students (68% women; 43% racial/ethnic minorities) to examine their perceptions of the availability, accessibility and acceptability of condoms, and their perceptions and use of the newly installed condom dispensers. Students perceived condoms to be available and accessible on campus after implementation of the condom dispensers. Students had heard about the dispensers from other people (36%), through social media (18%) and the campus newspaper (15%). Most students (71%) had seen the dispensers. Almost one in four students (23%) had taken a condom from the dispensers; among those who were sexually active during the 2months that the dispensers were available, 33% had used them. More than one-third of students (37%) – and 53% of sexually active students – indicated intentions to use the dispensers in the next 6months. Multiple regression analysis controlling for age, gender and race revealed that prior condom use, attitudes about the dispensers and comfort with the dispensers were significant predictors of sexually active students’ intentions to use the dispensers (p<.001). Overall, results indicate that over a short time period, this condom distribution programme was successful in reaching students and providing free condoms. Implications for implementing condom distribution programmes on college campuses as well as future directions for research are discussed.
