     路透社纽约健康消息 谁都知道,性生活时使用避孕套可以预防致命的疾病。根据对黑人少女的一项调查,是否坚持用避孕套取决于女孩子的自信程度和她们说服性伴侣的技巧。

    亚特兰大爱默里大学的锡安博士和同事们调查了500多名年14到18岁的性活动频繁的少女,以确定哪些因素跟是否使用避孕套有关。结果发现,不担心性伴侣报怨的女孩子更有可能坚持使用避孕套。同那些性伴侣的年龄较大的女孩子相比,那些和性伴侣年龄相近的女孩子更有可能坚持规律地使用避孕套。为此,他们认为,预防性病的措施之一是帮助年轻女性学会如何说服伴侣,坚持规律地使用避孕套避孕套。

    Assertive Girls More Likely to Insist on Condoms

    NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Using condoms during sexual activity can be life saving, but according to results of a new study conducted among sexually active African-American adolescent girls, consistent condom use may depend on how assertive the girl is and how well she demonstrates negotiating skills.

    ``Prevention programs should seek to build adolescents‘ skills in negotiating condom use,‘‘ Dr. Catlainn Sionean of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (news - web sites) in Atlanta, Georgia, told Reuters Health.

    Sionean and colleagues at Emory University in Atlanta interviewed over 500 sexually active females, aged 14 to 18, to determine the factors associated with consistent condom use.

    The investigators found that girls were more than twice as likely to use condoms consistently if they had little or no fear of negative reprisals from their partners.

    The authors also report that girls with partners of similar age were twice as likely to use condoms regularly, compared with those who had older sexual partners.

    Sexual risk reduction programs should help young women develop the skills needed to refuse sex unless condoms are used, the researchers suggest.

    The findings were presented Tuesday at the National STD Prevention Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin., 百拇医药
