Key clinical point: African American males aged 14-15 years were more likely than 18- to 19- year-old males to use a condom the last time they had sex.
Major finding: Increased condom use was associated with personal factors including high positive attachment to the boyfriend/girlfriend as was a greater number of sexual partners, younger age at first sexual encounter, and knowledge that the individual had a sexually-transmitted infection in the past year.
Study details: The data come from the Mobile Youth Survey, a community-based survey of adolescents in Mobile, Alabama, between 1998 and 2011; the study population included 3,718 individuals.
Disclosures: The study received no outside funding. The researchers had no financial conflicts to disclose.
