- W16851596 abstract "The prevalence of HIV infection among Nigerian youth has been persistently high and risky sexual behavior has been implicated as a major factor responsible for this. Knowledge of their sexual behavior and HIV risk perception is important for programmatic interventions. The study was conducted to describe the sexual practices and risk perception for HIV among National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members in Osun State. Study participants were tertiary institution graduates aged 20-29 years. The study employed a cross-sectional descriptive design. A pre-tested, self-administered, semi-structured questionnaire was used to elicit information from 500 corps members who were recruited by systematic random sampling at the NYSC orientation camp in Ede, Osun State, Nigeria. The results showed that 77.2% of the respondents had ever had sex, 86.6% of which were sexually active. Forty two percent had multiple sexual partners, 19.2% practiced transactional sex, while 58.1% used condom at last sex. The median age at first sex was 20 years. Only 16.6% felt that they had moderate to high risk of HIV infection. Good risk perception was associated with being sexually active (p=0.001), having multiple sexual partners (p< 0.001), transactional sex (p=0.002) and unprotected sex (p = 0.004). The prevalence of risky sexual behaviour among the respondents was high yet their risk perception for HIV was poor. Educational interventions that can empower youth to reasonably appreciate their risk of HIV and behavior change intervention that can make them to adopt safer sexual practices should be intensified among youth." @default.
