尽管研究表明，男性对女性的攻击性和不一致使用避孕套是相关现象，但人们对哪些因素会增加攻击性风险以避免使用避孕套知之甚少。本文测试了一种通过性侵犯避免避孕套的理论模型。成年男性参与者(N=289)通过在线广告在全国范围内招募。避免使用避孕套的攻击性策略使用修订版的性体验调查进行了衡量，并评估了从胁迫到身体暴力的各种攻击性行为。100名参与者(35.3%)报告至少有一次为避免使用避孕套而受到胁迫或攻击。结构方程模型显示，对女性的态度、避孕套的不一致使用和性伴数量是避免使用避孕套的攻击性策略的显著预测因素。更好地了解男性通过攻击性和强制性手段避免使用避孕套的态度和行为途径，最终将改善对高危男性和女性的教育和预防工作。
Although research has demonstrated that men's aggression against women and inconsistent condom use are related phenomena, little is known about what factors increase risk for aggression to avoid condom use. The present article tests a theory-based model of condom avoidance through use of sexual aggression. Adult male participants (N = 289) were recruited nationally through online advertisements. Aggressive tactics to avoid condom use were measured using an adapted version of the revised Sexual Experiences Survey, and a variety of aggressive behaviors spanning coercion to physical force were assessed. One hundred participants (35.3%) reported at least one instance of coercion or aggression to avoid using a condom. Structural equation modeling indicated that attitudes toward women, inconsistent condom use, and number of sexual partners were significant predictors of aggressive tactics to avoid condom use. A better understanding of the attitudinal and behavioral pathways through which men avoid condom use through aggressive and coercive means will ultimately result in improved education and prevention efforts for at-risk men and women.
