520 3    |a Men who have sex with men (MSM) have been a persecuted and stigmatized group during many points in history. This group experienced further marginalization when HIV infection emerged in 1981, and predominately affected this population. This persecution, stigmatization, and marginalization probably affect the mental health of this population. When MSM experience depressive symptoms and lowered self-esteem, does this have an effect sexual behavior? This quantitative research study examined the relationship of depressive symptoms, self-esteem, sexual behaviors, and selected demographic variables. A sample MSM representing the diverse ethnic composition of South Florida was sampled using survey research to discover the relationship of these aforementioned variables. Data that is collected were analyzed using a variety of parametric and non-parametric statistics.
