Abstract:
Risky sexual behaviors (RSB) refer to behaviors that can generate negative health consequences (WHO, 2006). Perceived risk in sexual behaviors (PRCS) is the subjective assessment of the associated danger (Robles et al., 2022), There are discrepancies with real behavior. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between impulsivity, alcohol consumption and PRCS in young adults. With a sample of 102 participants, the results show a high PRCS, without significant relationships with these variables. However, women have a greater perception of risk and unplanned impulsivity is negatively related to PRCS.
