abstract="About 1 in 4 college males admit to having lied or made false promises to have sex. In sex survey data reported here, 22% of 634 men lied an average of 4 times, but the modal number was 1, and 59% lied fewer than 4 times. Of the men who lied, 71% admitted to having been drinking at least some of these times. Lies told fell mostly into two subjective categories indicating caring or commitment (58%) or that this was not causal sex or a one-night stand (38%). Lying happened mostly at parties (66%) or at the woman's or man's apartment (34%). In contrast, only 0.2% of the males who lied admitted to having used threat or force to have sex. A logistic regression revealed four statistically significant predictors of men who lied: (i) (greater) sexual experience/activity, (ii) excessive use of alcohol, (iii) (greater) belief in women's use of a token &quot;no&quot; and (iv) (greater) hostility. Such variables identified correctly 77% of the men who lied.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
