Note: Past 30 day analyses are based on the 115 participants who indicated that they had sex in the past 30 days and the next 30 day analyses are only based on the 131 participants who indicated that they planned on having sex in the next 30 days. Participants with missing data on any variable were not included in these analyses (or deleted listwise).

Significance levels:

p < 0.01

*

p < 0.05

+

Denominators for these percentages are based only on those who indicated having sex in the past 30 days for past 30 day condom use and only on those who indicated planning on having sex in the next 30 days for next 30 day condom use.
