Personas mayores en riesgo: uso del preservativo ante las infidelidades
2019
Si bien las infecciones de transmisión sexual suelen relacionarse con etapas evolutivas tempranas, estudios recientes ponen el foco de atención en la población más mayor. Sin embargo, pocos esfuerzos centran su atención en dicho colectivo, entre otros motivos, por la propia invisibilización de su sexualidad. Esto ocurre todavía más, cuando se trata de conductas penalizadas socialmente, como sería el caso de la infidelidad. Por este motivo, el presente estudio busca analizar la conducta de uso del preservativo en personas mayores, en el contexto de la infidelidad, así como el papel que podrían jugar variables psicológicas y nuevos contextos sexuales, como internet. Para ello, 244 personas (4…
Clinical profile associated with HIV risk in Spanish youth
2018
Heterosexual transmission is the second route of new HIV infection diagnoses in Spain. A high percentage of young people use condom inconsistently. Beyond cognitive factors, emotional variables seem to be associated with sexual risk behavior. The aim was to examine the differential clinical profile between young people at risk and no-risk for HIV infection. A total of 424 heterosexuals were evaluated (M age =20.62; SD=2.16), and distributed into two groups: risk group (60.7%) and non-risk group (39.3%). They completed the AIDS Prevention Questionnaire, the Beck Depression Inventory, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Penn State Worry Questionnaire, and the Brief Fear of Negative Evaluatio…
Prevalence of human papillomavirus in the saliva of sexually active women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasias
2020
Background The main objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of human papillomavirus-DNA (HPV-DNA) in the saliva of sexually active women with HPV-related cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CIN) and compare the findings with a healthy control group. The secondary objectives were: 1) to determine the concordance between genital and oral HPV types in sexually active women with HPV-related CIN; 2) to analyze whether sexual habits influence the presence of HPV-related CIN; 3) to determine whether sexual habits influence the presence of oral HPV. Material and Methods Saliva samples were collected from 100 sexually active women, 50 with HPV-related CIN and 50 healthy subjects pres…
Influence of sexual sensation seeking, sexual compulsivity and sexual pleasure in condom use among Spanish youth: implications for HIV interventions
2016
Spain is one of the countries with the highest incidence of HIV within the European Union. Multiple and complex factors influence HIV infection in young people. This study aims to determine the influence of sexual sensation seeking, sexual compulsivity and perceived sexual pleasure variables in condom use. A total of 424 heterosexual youth were evaluated (M age = 20.62; SD = 2.62) distributed into a risk group (60.7%) and a no-risk group (39.3%). Sexual Sensation Seeking Scale, AIDS Prevention Questionnaire, Sexual Compulsivity Scale, and Sexual Pleasure Perceived Scale were administered. Results indicate statistically significant differences in sexual sensation seeking (p=.001), failure to…
