Sumario:BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Currently, no instrument exists to measure condom use behavior among Korean college students. This study aims to create a cross-cultural adaptation of the English version of the sexual risk behavior beliefs and self-efficacy (SRBBS) instrument into Korean and examine the psychological properties of the translated version. METHODS: Participants included 169 female college students recruited using convenience sampling techniques. Validity and reliability were examined using item and factor analyses and Cronbach’s alpha. Seventeen items were ultimately selected for analysis. RESULTS: Four factors were extracted through factor analysis, representing 63.80% of the variance. Following two modifications, it showed a good model fit in the KR-SRBBS. CONCLUSION: The KR-SRBBS may be suitable for evaluating sexual behavior and self-efficacy among female college students.
