| Self-perception of HIV risk is medium or high | 2.1† (0.9, 4.5) | 7.4*** (2.5, 22.1) | 4.8*** (2.2, 10.4) |

| Has had an STIa | 4.3*** (1.8, 9.9) | 1.1 (0.2, 5.2) | 2.2 (0.8, 5.8) |
Note. OR = odds ratio; CI = confidence interval; MSM = men who have sex with men exclusively; MSMW = men who have sex with both men and women; STI = sexually transmitted infection. Regression analyses included only respondents who could be classified into 1 of the 4 sexual orientation groups considered. All models were adjusted for age, level of education, marital status, acculturation, and type of survey venue. Reference category is heterosexually identified men who have sex with women exclusively.
Among subsamples who reported having ever been tested for STIs.
†P ≤ .1; *P ≤ .05; **P ≤ .01; ***P ≤ .001.
