| Abstract (English): | Objective The study addressed risky sexual behavior regarding HIV infection in students attending Fundación Universitaria Luis Amigó (FUNLAM) in Medellin during the last six months. Method This was a descriptive cross-sectional study involving a representative sample of 680 students who were surveyed using a questionnaire containing 65 qualitative and quantitative questions in line with sociodemographic variables and risky sexual behavior regarding HIV infection. Results For each man who had had sexual contact during the past six months there were 0.50 women [PR 0.50: 0.32-0.76 CI] and regarding age there were 0.43 less than or equal to 20 year old students for each college student aged over 20 years old [PR 0.43: 0.29-0.64 CI]. Statistically significant differences were found when comparing psychology students to engineering students [PR 0.32: 0.15-0.69 CI] and when comparing tenth semester students to first, second and fourth semester students [PR 0.11: 0.01-0.88CI; PR 0.07: 0.00-0.53 CI; PR 0.11: 0.14-0.86 CI, respectively]. Conclusion Sexual practice during the last six months was related to gender and age rather than other demographic variables showing the need to work with young people of both sexes, not just college students, for designing public health prevention and promotion action aimed at minimizing the risk of sexually transmitted HIV infection.

| Abstract (Spanish): | Objetivo El estudio buscó determinar las prácticas sexuales de riesgo para la infección por VIH que realizaron los estudiantes de la Fundación Universitaria Luis Amigó (Funlam) de la ciudad de Medellín en los últimos seis meses. Método Estudio descriptivo trasversal; con una muestra representativa de 680 estudiantes; se aplicó una encuesta con 65 preguntas cualitativas y cuantitativas, formuladas en coherencia con variables sociodemográficas y prácticas sexuales de riesgo a la infección por VIH. Resultados Por cada un hombre que tuvo prácticas sexuales en los últimos seis meses hubo 0,50 mujeres, [RP 0.50; IC 0,32-0,76]; en cuanto a la edad, por cada universitario mayor de 20 años hay 0,43 menores o iguales a 20 [RP 0,43; IC 0, 29-0,64]; los estudiantes de Psicología presentan diferencias estadística significativas en relación con estudiantes de Ingeniería, [RP 0,32; IC 0,15-0,69]; asimismo, los estudiantes del décimo semestre en comparación con los del primero, segundo y cuarto, [RP 0,11; IC 0,01-0,88], [RP 0,07; IC 0,00-0,53], [RP 0,11; IC 0,14-0,86], respectivamente. Conclusión La realización de prácticas sexuales en los últimos seis meses, depende del sexo o la edad más que por otras variables sociodemográficas, lo cual evidencia la necesidad de hacer un trabajo con poblaciones jóvenes de ambos sexos, no solo universitarios para que desde la salud pública se diseñen acciones que vayan en la dirección de la prevención y la promoción para minimizar los riesgos de infección al VIH por vía sexual.
