Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: The theory of reasoned action posits that condom use cannot be a targeted behavior for women, since they cannot simply wear a male condom. Others note that condom use is negotiated with a partner, unlike other targeted behavior like alcohol consumption or quitting smoking. This study examines if condom use communication, including initiating a conversation and trying to persuade a partner to use a condom, mediates the relationship between condom use and the remainder of the theory of reasoned action. Using a sample of 144 women at moderate risk for HIV/AIDS, this study finds that condom use communication mediates the relationship between intention to use condoms and the percentage of time a condom is used with a main partner. About one quarter of women reported that their partner resisted using a condom. Additionally, the most common resisting behavior for partners are stating they are disappointed and telling a partner not to worry. Future research should examine condom use negotiation between women and their main partners.
