Abstract
This study assessed the sexual attitudes and behaviours of the students at the
University ofKwaZulu-Natal, Westville campus. The relationships between high risk
sexual behaviour and sexual attitudes were explored. The sample was obtained from
the second and third year psychology classes, and III questionnaires were analysed
using a quantitative, correlational analysis. The findings indicate that the majority of
the students are engaging in high risk sexual behaviour. These high risk behaviours
were found to relate to more traditional attitudes towards rape myths and sexual
coercion, as well as more traditional attitudes towards sexuality issues. These findings
can be used to inform future research on the campus, as well as to "inform future
intervention strategies.
