What we achieved

• Cooperating with Unilabs
• Cooperating with University of Aveiro
• Created a survey to investigate the sexual lifestyle of young adults.

Survey Results

In total we got

• 171 participants
• slightly more women than men
• almost all of them students
• mostly from Germany, followed by Portugal and Lithuania.

The age distribution is typical of students. Given the following at-home test kit options, which would you choose?

• A) 60€ that is 99% accurate and response within 1 day after being examined in a lab
• B) 30€ but 80% accurate and response after 2 weeks after being examined in a lab
• C) 15€ but with unknown accuracy and response within minutes (like covid-rapid test)

See for yourself:

Women tend to be more informed than men and regardless of educational background at home testing is preferred.

A survey like this wouldn't be any fun without asking about sexual lifestyle.

Finally, unsafe sex:

Now it's time for some remarks. :

• Distribution shift due to participants in different countries being from different faculties. The students from Lithuania mostly in the humanities, from Germany mainly technology and Portugal mainly biology. Different disciplines can carry different behaviors and so these groups might not be representable of the whole country.
• The participants from Portugal and Lithuania were not reached via the student committee and so were part of a closer circle of people.
• The participants of the form might be those more interested in the subject, which might not reflect most of the population.
• The participants were almost exclusively students.

So take these stats with a grain of salt.
