Summary
This trial explores the link between drinking, sexual risk behavior, and sexual aggression in men. It investigates how emotions, alcohol, and stress impact men's decisions to engage in sexual risk behavior and how lab results compare to real-world behavior.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for single men aged 21-30 who have had unprotected sex with a woman at least once in the past year, drink alcohol twice a week, and have been sexually active recently. Men with alcohol problems or medical issues that make drinking unsafe can't participate.
What is being tested?
The study looks at how alcohol affects sexual risk behaviors and aggression in men when interacting with women. It tests if men's emotions and their partner's mood influence these behaviors under the effects of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves consumption of alcoholic beverages, potential side effects include typical reactions to alcohol such as impaired judgment, dizziness, nausea, or hangover symptoms depending on individual tolerance.
