项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Since 1990, the number of documented AIDS cases among U.S. adolescents has more than tripled; moreover, one-quarter of the new HIV infections in the U.S. are estimated to occur among youth between the ages of 13 and 20 (Office of National AIDS Policy 1996). Behaviors that put individuals at risk for exposure to sexually transmitted HIV, i.e., inconsistent condom use, multiple and concurrent sexual partners, necessarily occur within a relationship context. Yet, we know more about individual, family, peer and even neighborhood effects on adolescent and young adult risky sexual activities than about the influence of relationship qualities and experiences on sexual risk-taking and the management of HIV risk. Our proposed research builds on an in-depth study of adolescent heterosexual relationships, the Toledo Adolescent Relationships Study (TARS). We emphasize the potentially important role of communication awkwardness, heightened emotionality, various types of asymmetries as well as the critical but subjective element of "trust." A core theme is that experiences associated with gender, social class position, and minority status influence the course/contours of heterosexual dating and romantic relationships. Many of the relationship qualities we hypothesize may be linked with sexual risk-taking are not available in other well known longitudinal and panel data sets. We propose to follow-up these youths (n =1,316) as they experience a broader repertoire of relationship experiences, navigate key life transitions, and enter an age range that typically involves greater potential exposure to sexually transmitted HIV risk. We propose to conduct two additional waves of interviews with the TARS respondents, whose ages at the time of the proposed study would range from 17 to 23. We have two aims. First, identify the features of relationships that may influence variations in (a) management of sexual risk deriving from the partner's experiences/behaviors and (b) one's own involvement in risky sexual behavior. Second, examine distinct individual trajectories of involvement in high-risk sexual behaviors. We will focus attention on stability and changes from a particular pattern--both escalation and de-escalation are critical to consider. The findings from this project will lead to potential areas of social malleability in relationship choices and behaviors that can be incorporated into the design of more effective HIV prevention/intervention efforts.

描述（由申请人提供）：自1990年以来，美国青少年的艾滋病案件数量的数量超过两倍；此外，估计在13至20岁的青年中，美国新的艾滋病毒感染中有四分之一发生（国家艾滋病政策办公室，1996年）。使个人有暴露于性传播的艾滋病毒的行为，即使用避孕套不一致，多重和并发性伴侣，必然发生在关系环境中。但是，我们对个人，家庭，同伴甚至邻里对青少年和年轻人的风险性活动的影响更多，而不是关于关系质量和经验对性冒险的影响以及艾滋病毒风险管理的影响。我们提出的研究基于对托莱多青少年关系研究（TARS）的青少年异性关系的深入研究。我们强调了交流尴尬，情绪增强，各种类型的不对称以及“信任”的关键但主观要素的潜在重要作用。一个核心主题是，与性别，社会阶级地位和少数群体地位相关的经验影响异性恋约会和浪漫关系的课程/轮廓。我们假设的许多关系质量可能与发生性冒险的关系有关，在其他众所周知的纵向和面板数据集中都不可用。我们建议跟进这些年轻人（n = 1,316），因为他们经历了更广泛的关系经历，导航关键的生活转变，并进入一个年龄范围，这些年龄范围通常涉及更大的潜在暴露于性传播的HIV风险。我们建议对TARS受访者进行另外两次访谈，他们在拟议研究时的年龄将在17到23之间。我们有两个目标。首先，确定关系的特征，这些特征可能会影响（a）从伴侣的经验/行为中衍生的性风险的变化以及（b）自己参与风险的性行为。其次，检查参与高风险性行为的不同个体轨迹。我们将把注意力集中在稳定性和变化上特定的模式 - 升级和降级至关重要。该项目的发现将导致在关系选择和行为中的社会延展性潜在领域，这些领域可以纳入更有效的HIV预防/干预工作的设计中。
