These skills are: assertiveness (in demanding safer sex from partners); informativeness (about the need for safer sex); ability to anticipate high-risk situations (demonstrated by mention of carrying condoms); and implementation (of safer sex skills). A total skill score can be obtained by summing these. A count of number of alternative solutions is generated. A count of number of obstacles identified is generated.
