文化和传统影响行为。多伙伴和并行关系是撒哈拉以南非洲艾滋病毒感染增加的原因。本文使用情境化的“计划行为理论”来确定实行一夫一妻制的意图的预测因素。一个混合的方法设计使用定性数据从焦点小组,故事,和调查分析定量数据。定性数据增加了社会文化信仰领域的行为信念,以及态度和主观规范。知觉到的行为控制可以预测实行一夫一妻制的意图。青少年倾向于拥有不止一个性伴侣。规范性信念和社会文化信念也预测意图,而享乐主义信念和合作伙伴的反应不。在将基于理论的干预置于情境中时,重要的是要从社区中流传的关于特定行为的故事和语言中汲取经验。需要开展更多的研究,探讨如何将联合收割机定性方法与定量方法相结合,为制定基于理论、文化上适当和针对具体情况的干预战略提供信息,以减少艾滋病毒的风险。
Culture and tradition influence behavior. Multiple-partner and concurrent relationships are held responsible for the increase of HIV infection in Sub-Saharan Africa. A contextualized “theory of planned behavior” is used in this article to identify predictors of intention to practice monogamy. A mixed method design using qualitative data from focus groups, stories, and a survey is analyzed for quantitative data. The qualitative data add to the behavioral beliefs a sociocultural belief domain, as well as attitudes and subjective norms. Perceived behavioral control predicts the intention to practice monogamy. Adolescents show a tendency toward having more than one sexual partner. The normative beliefs and the sociocultural beliefs also predict intentions, while hedonistic beliefs and partner’s reaction do not. In contextualizing theory-based interventions, it is important to draw from stories and the language that circulate in a community about a given behavior. More studies are needed on ways to combine qualitative approaches with quantitative approaches to inform the development of theory-based, culturally appropriate, and context-specific intervention strategies to reduce the risk of HIV.
