Abstract

Seventy-six college students completed the Risky Sexual Behavior Survey. Contraceptive users were more likely than non-users to report having unprotected sex, while STI-testers were more likely than non STI-testers to report they participated in sexting and that causal sex with multiple partners is okay. No significant gender differences were found.
