"The study utilized data from 184 cisgender sexual minority male respondents aged 18 to 35. Every participant was HIV negative and 56% had a current PrEP prescription. All of them were in a relationship with an adult cisgender male partner and had a non-monogamous sexual agreement, meaning sex with an outside partner (any partner other than their primary relationship partner) was in some way permitted."
"Participants provided details about their recent substance use and sexual behavior in a time-line follow-back interview (Sobell & Sobell, 1996). This involved filling in a calendar of the past 30 days by indicating any day on which they had sex or used any drugs. In addition, participants completed a survey that included assessments of: Relationship quality. The Multiple Determinants of Relationship Commitment (Kurdek, 1995) inventory assessed 6 aspects of relationship quality."
Data came from 184 cisgender sexual minority men aged 18–35. All participants were HIV-negative, 56% reported a current PrEP prescription, and all maintained non-monogamous sexual agreements permitting outside partners. Participants completed a 30-day timeline follow-back interview recording daily sexual activity and substance use, plus surveys assessing relationship quality using the Multiple Determinants of Relationship Commitment inventory. Higher relationship satisfaction correlated with greater joint coping, defined as partners working together to address a health threat. Greater joint coping was associated with fewer condomless sexual acts with outside partners.
