Abstract: Objective: Condomless sex and its related consequences are a persistent problem on college campuses in the United States. This study aimed to examine the association between condom use self-efficacy and condom-decision abdication among college students, and whether this association was moderated by gender. Participants & methods: Undergraduate college students (N = 212; 50.5% female) were recruited via Amazon Mechanical Turk as part of a larger online study that examined normative feedback for condom use. Results: The association between condom use self-efficacy and condom-decision abdication was significantly moderated by gender (B = −0.07, p <.001), such that condom use self-efficacy was associated with condom-decision abdication in college women (B = −0.05, p <.005) but not in college men (B =.02, p =.18). Conclusion: Findings from this study suggest that condom use self-efficacy may be an important intervention target for promoting condom use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
