摘要: This study tested the hypothesis that greater alcohol involvement will predict number of sexual partners to a extent for women than men, and hypothesized sex-specific, alcohol-sexual partner associations hold when controlling alternative sex-linked explanations (i.e., depression drug use). We recruited 508 patients (46 % female, 67 African American) from public sexually transmitted infections (STI) clinic. Participants reported partners, drinks per week, maximum day, frequency heavy drinking; they also completed AUDIT-C measure problems. As expected, men more drinking partners. Also as association between use was significant but not these were explained by or depression. A comprehensive prevention strategy attending STI clinics might include reduction.
