Older Adolescents and AIDS: Correlates of Self-Reported Safer Sex Practices.

Mimberg, Helen M.; Lewis, Robin J.

Journal of Research on Adolescence, v4 n3 p453-64 1994

Relationships among knowledge about AIDS, sex guilt, components of the Health Belief Model, and self-reported safer sex practices were examined in first-year college students. Found that knowledge about AIDS was not related to self-reported safer sex practices, but self-reported safer sex practices were positively related to sex guilt. (HTH)
