Alcohol & Men's Sexual Risk Behaviors Study

This study is looking at how alcohol and emotions affect men's sexual risk behaviors, specifically resistance to condom use. Researchers are investigating if consuming an alcoholic beverage (vodka mixed with fruit juice) or a non-alcoholic beverage (fruit juice), along with experiencing different emotional situations (Partner Negative Mood Manipulation or Partner Positive Mood Manipulation), changes men's intentions regarding sexual risk. You may be able to join if you are a single man between 21 and 30 years old, have had unprotected sex with a woman in the past year, drink alcohol at least once a week, and have had sex with a woman at least twice in the past 30 days. The study will measure your sexual risk intentions within one hour of receiving the intervention. The current enrollment status is unclear.
