Associations between impulsive personality traits and HIV-related knowledge, beliefs and behaviours among college students in Chengdu, China: a cross-sectional study

Bin Yu, Yuling Huang, Rong Pei, Jiayu Han, Shujuan Yang Little research exists on impulsive personality traits (IPTs) in first- and second-year college students who are curious about sex but lack HIV knowledge and safe sex awareness. This cross-sectional study revealed that the students with a greater level of IPTs were more likely to have a high level of HIV stigma and a low level of HIV knowledge and HIV prevention beliefs. Our findings provoke thinking about future campus health education.
