Correlates of Heterosexual Anal Intercourse Among Substance-Using Club-Goers
Abstract Anal sexual intercourse represents the highest transmission risk for infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV),
yet much of what we know about anal sex is based on men who have sex with men (MSM). Less is known about heterosexual adults
who practice anal sex, especially those who may be at risk for HIV such as substance users. The present study examined the
demographic, sexual behaviors, substance use, and psychosocial correlates of recent anal intercourse among a heterosexual
young adult sample of nightclub [...]

Buying and Selling Sex in Québec Adolescents: A Study of Risk and Protective Factors
Abstract This study examined the exchange of sexual services for compensation (e.g., money, drugs, alcohol) in high school students.
The sale of sex in young people from nonclinical samples has been the subject of recent studies, but buying such services
has received far less attention. This study described these two phenomena and associated factors within a nonclinical sample
of 815 high school students (M = 15.86 years) from Québec. According to our results, 3% of these youth reported having bought and 4% reporte [...]

Viewing Time Effects Revisited: Prolonged Response Latencies for Sexually Attractive Targets Under Restricted Task Conditions
Abstract Sexually attractive stimuli are watched longer than unattractive stimuli. The processes underlying this robust and reliable
viewing time effect are presently not well understood. In the present research comprising four experiments (total N = 250), four classes of potential explanations are proposed and the derived implications were experimentally tested. Contrary
to explanations based on either deliberate delay or attentional adhesion to sexually attractive stimuli, prolonged response
latencies were also found u [...]

Internet Use and Sexual Health of Young Men Who Have Sex with Men: A Mixed-Methods Study
Abstract Young gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) experience sexual health disparities due to a lack of support
in settings that traditionally promote positive youth development. The Internet may help to fill this void, but little is
known about how it is used for sexual health purposes among young MSM. This mixed-methods study reports quantitative results
of a large survey of 18- to 24-year-old MSM in an HIV testing clinic (N = 329) as well as qualitative results from interviews. Level of Internet [...]
