DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Young women, particularly women of color, are at increasing risk from HIV in the United States today. Prevention efforts focused on increasing consistent condom use have had limited success. Gendered sexual roles that limit female power in safer sex negotiations have been suggested as a possible influence, but little empirical work has been done in this promising area. There is a shortage of research on factors that empower women to negotiate safer sex with male partners and influences on their ability to do so successfully. This application proposes to fill this gap by investigating the influences of gender norms and gender inequality, as enacted through female sexual agency, on women's safer sex negotiations, using a mixed methods design.

描述（由申请人提供）：当今美国的年轻女性，尤其是有色人种女性，感染艾滋病毒的风险越来越大。侧重于提高安全套使用率的预防工作收效甚微。限制女性在安全性行为谈判中的权力的性别角色被认为是一种可能的影响，但在这个有前景的领域几乎没有开展实证工作。关于女性能够与男性伴侣协商安全性行为的因素以及对她们成功实现这一目标的能力的影响，目前还缺乏研究。本申请旨在通过使用混合方法设计来调查通过女性性机构制定的性别规范和性别不平等对女性安全性行为谈判的影响，从而填补这一空白。
