“…Our findings resonate with other studies showing that lapses in self-regulation commonly occur at night in other health behaviors such as dieting (Forman et al, 2017; McKee, Ntoumanis, & Taylor, 2014) and trying to quit smoking (Fillo, Alfano, Paulus, & Baird, 2016). One implication of our findings is that, in order to maximize ecological validity, future lab-based research on sexual response and decision-making (e.g., the effects of arousal on behavior) should be conducted at times of day or in states of tiredness that more closely match the real-world conditions in which sexual decisions are commonly being made.…”

Three Reasons to Consider the Role of Tiredness in Sexual Risk-Taking Among Gay and Bisexual Men

et al. 2018

Numerous factors have been shown to increase sexual risk-taking-especially among gay and bisexual men (GBM), who remain disproportionately affected by HIV and STIs. We present three lines of evidence that highlight the need to consider a previously under-explored situational factor in sexual risk-taking: tiredness. While tiredness has been shown, in sleep science literature, to impair cognition, emotional functioning, and decision-making in a wide range of behaviors, it has yet to be considered in-depth as a risk factor in sexual behavior. Counter to the common-sense assumption that being tired should impede the performance of active, effortful behaviors such as sex, we propose that tiredness may actually increase sexual risk-taking. Analyzing data from an online survey of 1113 HIV-negative GBM, we found that sex with casual partners most commonly occurred at night, especially among younger GBM and those with an evening chronotype, and that sex without condoms more often occurred at or later than one's usual time of feeling tired (as was reported by 44.2% of men) than did sex with condoms (reported by 36.6%). We also found that tiredness can increase sexual desire in many GBM (endorsed by 29.9%), and increases the likelihood of engaging in receptive positioning in anal sex (endorsed by almost 40% of men with a versatile sexual positioning identity). These findings highlight the importance of considering tiredness as a situational risk factor in sexual health-especially among younger GBM-and of counting sex among the behaviors that can be adversely impacted by poor or overdue sleep.

“…So far, much research has shown that social support and self‐efficacy are associated (e.g. Banik et al., ; Benight & Bandura, ; Duncan & McAuley, ; Ernsting, Knoll, Schneider, & Schwarzer, ; Luszczynska, Sarkar, & Knoll, ; Rackow, Scholz, & Hornung, ; Schwarzer & Knoll, ). For instance, an overview paper by Schwarzer and Knoll () re‐analysed data from a study by Schröder, Schwarzer, and Konertz () conducted with patients recovering from cardiac surgery.…”

“…Importantly, the direction of associations between self‐efficacy and support can be reciprocal, in that support received may enhance recipients’ self‐efficacy (the enabling hypothesis; Banik et al., ), whereas at the same time self‐efficacy may facilitate receipt of support (cultivation hypothesis; Hohl et al., ). A related question that has rarely been addressed so far concerns the decomposition of time‐stable and time‐varying shares of this association in couples, thereby visualising different change patterns.…”

Background: Existing evidence indicates that social support may enhance recipients' self-efficacy (enabling hypothesis) or that self-efficacy facilitates support receipt (cultivation hypothesis). However, less is known about the time-lagged support-self-efficacy relationship in couples. Our aim was to disentangle reciprocal interrelations among stable and time-varying components of support provision and self-efficacy in couples over time. Methods: We conducted secondary analyses of a published randomised controlled trial with six assessments, spanning 1 year and N = 338 heterosexual couples (age range: 18-80 years). Women's and men's reports on physical activity-specific provided support and physical activity-specific self-efficacy were analysed. Results: Based on the actor-partner interdependence bs_bs_banner model, we compared nested random intercepts cross-lagged panel models. The final model revealed no gender effects. Stable levels of both partners' support provision and self-efficacy were positively associated. At the time-varying level, one partner's self-efficacy predicted the other partner's support provision later on. No lagged-association emerged for the opposite predictive direction. Conclusions: Partners' stable shares of provided support and self-efficacy were interrelated, whereas higher time-varying self-efficacy of one partner seemed to activate support provision from the other partner, confirming the cultivation hypothesis but not the enabling hypothesis.

“…For persons who find the behavior difficult, in turn, a self‐efficacy intervention may prove helpful. In Bangladesh, this might be achieved by forming women's support groups (in line with the enabling hypothesis; Banik et al., ). According to social‐cognitive theory (Bandura, ), improved self‐efficacy should strengthen motivation, and should also lead to the perception of fewer barriers, and hence finding the behavior less difficult.…”

Enabling, Not Cultivating: Received Social Support and Self-Efficacy Explain Quality of Life After Lung Cancer Surgery

Abstract: Interventions for patients with lung cancer may focus on enhancing social support receipt within the first week after surgery, followed by a self-efficacy prompt 3 weeks later.
