Promoting Safer Sexual Dual Protection Behaviors for Female University Students to Reduce Risks of Both STI/HIV and Unintended Pregnancy

The IMB model based safe sexual dual protection education was designed to provide factual information about sexual risks of STI/HIV and unwanted pregnancy and the benefits of safer sexual dual protection behaviors including abstinence and dual protection use, enhance motivation to practice primary sexual abstinence for sexually inexperienced youth and dual protection use for sexually experienced young women, and teach specific behavioral skills required for practicing abstinence and/or negotiate safer sex with partners to use condoms/dual protection for simultaneous prevention of both risks of STI/HIV and unwanted pregnancy among youth at risk.
