我们研究了自我披露的人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）感染异性恋风险增加的拉丁裔女性中，主要或非主要性伴侣关系状况与性风险行为（包括安全套使用）之间的关系。数据是通过对 187 名年龄在 18 至 35 岁之间的波多黎各女性进行的结构化访谈收集的，她们曾在纽约布朗克斯的一家健康诊所就诊。大约 13% 的参与者报告在采访前 6 个月内与主要和非主要性伴侣发生过性行为。主要或非主要性伴侣的身份与肛交和口交阴茎性交期间安全套使用频率的显着差异相关，据报道，在与非主要性伴侣的这些性活动中使用安全套的频率更高。因此，与主要或非主要关系状态相关的潜在背景差异可能是设计干预措施时需要考虑的重要因素，以促进异性恋艾滋病毒感染风险增加的城市妇女群体的艾滋病毒保护行为。
We examined the association of primary or nonprimary sexual partner relationship status on sexual risk behaviors, including condom use, among Latina women who are at self-disclosed increased heterosexual risk for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Data were collected via structured interviews of 187 Puerto Rican women, aged 18-35, who attended a health clinic in the Bronx, New York. Approximately 13% of participants reported sexual activities with both primary and nonprimary sexual partners during the 6 months prior to the interview. Primary or nonprimary sexual partner status was associated with significant differences in frequency of condom use during anal sex and oral-penile sex, with more frequent condom use reported during these sexual activities with nonprimary sexual partners. Thus, potential contextual differences associated with primary or nonprimary relationship status may represent important factors to consider when designing interventions to facilitate HIV-protective behaviors among populations of urban women identified at increased heterosexual risk for HIV infection.
