| Research Abstract |
This study consists of two parts.
First, a condom negotiation program for high school students was developed in peer counseling programs run by college students in a prefecture. The condom negotiation skills needed not only skills to negotiate for condom use but also skills to understand and communicate with partner.
Therefore, the whole peer counseling program was designed to contribute to condom negotiation skills. The program designed with three parts run for two days, which are "Basic communication skills", "Understanding self and others", and "Thinking of sexuality".

As for psychological correlates, males' traditional attitudes toward gender roles were significantly associated with less usage of condoms. Females' negotiation for condom use was not associated with gender role constructs, probably because many females may have not needed the negotiation if the partner was willing to put on their own will. It should be further investigated how females make decisions about whether or not to negotiate in response to her partner's attitudes toward condom use. Less
