Résumé :
ENGLISH :
The primary aim of this study was to examine factors related to anal sex practices and sexual risk-taking among a sample of soon-to-be-released adult male inmates with respect to self-reported HIV/AIDS risk behaviours. This study focused on collecting data from adult male inmates during the period from 2000 to 2003. Baseline level data were collected by project staff after a pool of eligible participants was selected by Department of Corrections personnel. Inmates had to be 18 years of age or older, male, and sexually active. Findings suggest that inmates did not vary much with respect to feeling that they would be less likely to take precautions before having sex after using marijuana. Inmates who reported having anal sex were more likely to indicate that they felt they were better lovers while under the influences of marijuana. Those with a history of anal sex also reported being more likely to do things sexually under the influence of marijuana than they would if they were sober (P < 0.03). (Author' s abstract)
