Abstract
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo describir la relación existente entre las expectativas sobre los efectos del consumo de alcohol y las conductas sexuales de riesgo en una muestra de estudiantes pre universitarios. Los participantes fueron 78 estudiantes de una academia pre cadete (M=18.88 años, DS=1.37) en su mayoría varones. La medición de las expectativas sobre el alcohol se realizó con el Cuestionario de Expectativas sobre el Alcohol (Alcohol Expectancy Questionnaire, AEQ) diseñado por Brown, Christiansen & Goldman (1987); y para las conductas sexuales de riesgo se diseñó un cuestionario utilizando de referencia el Cuestionario confidencial de vida sexual activa construido por el Ministerio de Salud de Colombia con la colaboración de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud (1997, citado en Uribe, 2005). Los resultados indican que las expectativas personales y positivas se asocian positivamente tanto con las relaciones sexuales bajo los efectos del alcohol, como con tener relaciones con trabajadoras sexuales bajo los efectos del mismo. Para el caso de los varones, estas relaciones son más altas y se encuentra una asociación con el uso de condón en los últimos 12 meses y las relaciones sexuales casuales. Las expectativas cognitivas y motoras positivas se relacionan de manera inversa con tener sexo con trabajadoras sexuales y el sexo casual.
The aim of the present study was to describe the relationship between alcohol outcome expectations and risky sexual behavior in a sample of students. The participants consisted of 78 students (M = 18.88 years, SD=1.37) mostly male. The measurement of alcohol expectations was made with the Alcohol Expectancy Questionnaire (AEQ), designed by Brown, Christiansen & Goldman (1987), and for the risky sexual behavior, a questionnaire was developed in reference to the confidential questionnaire of active sex life designed by Ministry of Health of Colombia on collaboration with Pan American Health Organization (1997, in Uribe, 2005). The results indicate that personal and positive expectations are positively associated with sex under the influence of alcohol and have intercourse with sex workers under the effects of this substance. In the case of men, these correlations are higher; and an association is found with condom use in the last 12 months and casual sex. Cognitive and motor positive expectations are inversely associated with having sex with sex workers and casual sex.
