风险还是释放？：色情使用轨迹和性伴侣的积累

色情消费研究的一个中心问题是，消费是否会影响危险的性行为。在这项研究中，我们专注于危险性行为的一个关键方面，即性伴侣的积累。使用纵向潜在类分析的全国代表性样本，我们确定不同的轨迹色情消费。然后，我们使用障碍模型将这些轨迹中的成员资格与性活动的开始和性伴侣的积累联系起来。即使控制了可能的混淆（如冒险倾向和关系形成），我们发现，早期和定期使用色情内容的青少年更有可能报告性活动的开始，并且性伴侣的数量几乎是那些低使用轨迹的青少年的两倍。这项研究具有社会学意义，因为色情消费在成年前变得越来越普遍，这表明最近的成年人群体可能更有可能通过多个性伴侣的积累而从事危险的性行为。
A central question in the study of pornography consumption is whether consumption influences risky sexual behavior. In this research, we focus on one key aspect of risky sexual behavior, the accumulation of sexual partners. Using longitudinal latent class analysis of a nationally representative sample, we determine distinct trajectories of pornography consumption. We then use hurdle models to relate membership in these trajectories to the initiation of sexual activity and accumulation of sexual partners. Even with controls for likely confounds (such as risk-taking propensity and relationship formation), we find that adolescents with a trajectory of early and regular pornography use are more likely to report the initiation of sexual activity and nearly double the number of sexual partners as those with a low-use trajectory. This research is of sociological interest because pornography consumption is becoming increasingly common well before adulthood, suggesting that recent cohorts of emerging adults may be more likely to engage in risky sexual behavior through the accumulation of multiple sexual partners.
