Abstract: Investigated relationship between sexual risk taking and attitudes toward Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) precautions among Australian nonvirgin college students (n=1,006). Results showed that, although in general young women showed more positive attitudes to AIDS precautions than young men, it was only among young women that negative attitudes to precautions and risky behavior were related.
