GONZALEZ BARRIOS, Diego Alejandro; LEGUIZAMON VARGAS, Jefferson Sebastián; ROJAS CIFUENTES, Gabriela e DILLON SOARES-FILHO, Paulo Sergio. Sexual Discounting and Sexual Risk Behavior in a Sample of Young Adults from Colombia. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2023, vol.41, n.3, e5. Epub 07-Jun-2024. ISSN 1794-4724. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/apl/a.11879.
The goal of this study was to describe the rate of sexual discounting and its relation with the self-report of sexual risk behavior in a sample of young adults from Colombia. To achieve this goal, a correlational cross-sectional non-experimental study was done. One hundred thirty six young adult participants responded to a sexual risk behavior self-report questionnaire, a sexual delay discounting task (SDDT), and a monetary choice questionnaire (MCQ). The results suggest that the value of the safe sex option decreases with the delay to obtain a condom (i. e., sexual discounting). Additionally, it was observed that the sexual discounting rate was associated with the self-report of sexual risk behavior, like, the number of sexual partners and sexual encounters in the last three months. It was also observed a different pattern of sexual discounting between men and women.
