Furthermore, beliefs about pregnancy (β = .07, p < .05), attitudes towards delaying sexual intercourse (β = .13, p < .001), the perceived social norms (β = .15, p < .001), and self-efficacy for delayed sexual intercourse (β = .30, p < .001) were positively associated with the intention to delay sexual intercourse.
"The only non-automatic part of the proposed settlement with Mark Byford was the intention to delay the issuing of formal notice and to make a payment in lieu of notice: there is clear evidence that the trust was aware of both those points".
The intention to delay sexual intercourse was positively correlated with beliefs about pregnancy (r = .14; p < .01), beliefs about STI (r = .09; p < .01), beliefs about HIV (r = .09; p < .01), attitude towards delayed sexual intercourse (r = .36; p < .01), self-efficacy to delay sexual intercourse (r = .46; p < .01) and the perceived social norm for delayed sexual intercourse (r = .07; p < .01).01
The intention to delay sexual intercourse was, however, predicted similarly for both groups, with attitudes, perceived social norm and self-efficacy being significant predictors.
Additionally, among those without previous sexual experience, age was negatively related to the intention to delay intercourse thus implying that the likelihood that adolescents delay sexual intercourse decreases with age.
This study has shown that when it comes to the intention to delay sexual intercourse, compared to the intention to secondary abstinence, the predictors are relatively similar.
Subsequently, linear regression was employed to determine the relative importance of the correlates of the intention to use condoms and the intention to delay sexual intercourse.
The dependent variables were the intention to delay sexual intercourse and the intention to use a condom the next time one engages in sexual intercourse.
This study examines predictors of the intention to use a condom and the intention to delay sexual intercourse among secondary school students (aged 12 20) in Uganda.
The present study examined, among adolescents in Uganda, the predictors of the intention to delay sexual intercourse (for virgins), the intention to secondary abstinence (for non-virgins) and the intention to use a condom the next time one has sex.
To assess the relative importance of the predictors of the intention to delay sexual intercourse, linear regression analyses were conducted.
