In this recording of my presentation, I briefly share our research on how religious identity affects the relationship between risky sexual behavior and life satisfaction. From the literature, studies have shown that risky sexual behavior has positive consequences on an individual due to feelings of satisfaction from their sexual experiences and elevated self-perception of empowerment and attractive self-image.
