What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating a behavior change intervention program designed to reduce risky sexual behaviors among college students aged 16 to 24. This program was developed using the Behavior Change Wheel (BCW) theory and includes input from literature analysis, expert feedback, and pre-experiments. The goal is to improve students' psychosexual health, social support, sexual self-efficacy, risk perception, and decision-making ability to lower the occurrence of risky sexual behaviors and related adverse outcomes. The intervention involves a behavioral program aimed at college students who have engaged in risky sexual behaviors such as multiple partners, unprotected sex, or casual sex. Participants are randomly assigned to either the intervention group receiving this program or a control group with no intervention. The intervention lasts 12 weeks, with evaluations before the intervention (T0) and after its completion (12 weeks, T1). During the study, participants will be assessed using scales measuring sexual mental health, social support, and sexual self-efficacy at both T0 and T1. The study monitors changes in these areas to determine the intervention's impact. Participation involves completing questionnaires and assessments related to psychosexual health and social factors, with the entire involvement spanning the 12-week intervention period.
