“…Por otro lado, en las investigaciones encontradas sobre las conductas sexuales de riesgo resalta el estudio realizado por Trent et al (2023) quienes encontraron que no existe relación entre los riesgos percibidos y el comportamiento sexual durante la pandemia de COVID-19, ya que la preocupación sobre la exposición al coronavirus no afectó la participación en las relaciones sexuales. En el estudio de Amare et al (2019) se encontró que la prevalencia de padecer enfermedades de transmisión sexual en estudiantes de colegio y universidad es similar, y que los hombres son más propensos a participar en prácticas sexuales de riesgo que las mujeres.…”

Las enfermedades de transmisión sexual son una problemática de salud púbica que afecta con mayor frecuencia a los adultos jóvenes, por lo tanto, el objetivo de esta investigación fue relacionar las variables inteligencia emocional y percepción de las conductas sexuales de riesgo en estudiantes universitarios. Este estudio tuvo un enfoque cuantitativo no experimental, de nivel descriptivo con alcance correlacional de corte transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 179 estudiantes universitarios, siendo 72 hombres y 107 mujeres de entre 18 a 28 años, quienes cumplieron con ciertos criterios de inclusión y exclusión y respondieron sobre sus habilidades de inteligencia emocional a través de la escala Trait Meta Mood Scale (TMMS-24) y la Escala de Percepción del Riesgo para Conducta Sexual y fueron seleccionados mediante el muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia. Los resultados demostraron que existe relación positiva leve entre la dimensión reparación emocional y percepción de las conductas sexuales de riesgo en estudiantes universitarios, y se concluye que a mayor reparación emocional es mayor la capacidad para percibir conductas sexuales de riesgo.

College students often engage in multiple health-related behaviors simultaneously which can lead to negative outcomes and further risky behaviors. During the COVID-19 pandemic, college students reported decreased condom use, increased solitary cannabis use, and increased alcohol consumption. This current study aimed to (1) identify profiles of health-related behaviors (i.e., alcohol consumption, cannabis use, and sexual behaviors), and (2) determine if these profiles would differ in engagement and perceived effectiveness of COVID-19 preventative measures. Participants were 273 college students from a large Northeastern U.S. public university who completed surveys about health-related behaviors during the 2021 academic year. We used a latent profile analysis to identify distinct subgroups of college students based on their engagement in health-related behaviors. Based on fit indices a three-profile solution showed the best fit: low (N = 196), moderate (N = 54), and high (N = 23). Two one-way ANOVAs examined whether profile membership predicted engagement and perceived effectiveness of COVID-19 safety measures. Participants in the low health-related behaviors profile engaged in preventative measures more than students in the other two profiles. However, profile membership did not predict perceived effectiveness of preventative behaviors. Taken together, our results indicate that college students reporting lower levels of health-related behaviors engage in more preventative measures during a pandemic. Understanding distinct health-related behaviors profiles among college students, and their links with COVID-preventative health-related behaviors, can inform prevention strategies.
