A logistic regression model found that ethnicity other than African American, more sexual partners in the past year, greater stigma towards homosexuality, and greater perceived peer sexual norms for risky behavior were significantly associated with UAI (x(2) =27.96, df=5, p<.001; Nagelkerke R(2) = 0.56). Implications for prevention interventions are discussed.
