摘要
This paper examines the relationship between risk perception, sexual risk-taking and locus of control among injecting drug users (IDUs). Locus of control was found to mediate the relationship between perception and behaviour, in that only IDUs with an internal locus of control made moderately accurate assessments of their risk. Despite this, an internal locus of control did not result in safer behaviours.
