Cross-Sectional Research

In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Sexual Health Education
  • Health Promotion

Background:

  • Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) pose a significant risk to college students.
  • Condom distribution programs are a key strategy for STI prevention.
  • Research on the impact of campus condom distribution is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the perceived and actual impact of a campus-wide condom distribution program.
  • To assess student perceptions of condom availability, accessibility, and acceptability.
  • To examine condom dispenser usage and future intentions among college students.

Main Methods:

  • Quantitative, cross-sectional study at a large public university in the Southeastern USA.
  • Intercept surveys conducted with 355 students approximately two months after program implementation.
  • Data collected on perceptions of condom availability, accessibility, acceptability, and dispenser use.

Main Results:

  • Students perceived increased condom availability and accessibility post-program implementation.
  • Over 70% of students saw the dispensers, and 23% took condoms; 33% of sexually active students used them.
  • Significant predictors of future use included prior condom use, positive attitudes, and comfort with dispensers.

Conclusions:

  • The campus condom distribution program was effective in reaching students and providing free condoms in a short timeframe.
  • Findings support the implementation of similar programs on college campuses to enhance sexual health.
  • Further research is recommended to explore long-term impacts and optimize program strategies.
