Abstract：Objective To investigate the cognitive status of knowledge about sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) among college students in Nanchong City. Methods A total of 1,675 students from North Sichuan Medical College and other 3 colleges in Nanchong City were recruited by using a cluster-based stratified sampling method from September to November, 2014. A self-designed questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the information regarding demographic characteristics, the types of STDs, transmission routines, symptoms, preventive measures, the ways of acquired knowledge and the expected approaches of receiving knowledge. Epidata2.0 software was employed for data input, and SPSS13.0 software for statistical analysis, including general descriptive analysis, data calculation and Chi-square test. Results The awareness rates of AIDS (93.9%), gonorrhea (81.4%) and syphilis (60.2%) in the college students were all higher, but they knew little about other types of STDs (9.1%-43.2%). Generally speaking, no statistically significant difference was found in the awareness rate between males and females (P>0.05), but there were statistically significant differences between medical students and non-medical students (P<0.05). The awareness rates of transmission ways of STDs were as follows: intercourse (96.2%), blood (88.7%) and maternal-neonatal way (82.2%). Generally speaking, there were statistically significant differences in the awareness rate between males and females as well as between medical students and non-medical students (both P<0.05). The top 3 awareness rates of preventive measures for STDs were sexual morality compliance (79.5%), condom use (73.4%), syringe sharing avoidance and drugs rejection (73.0%). Similarly, female students and medical students knew much more knowledge than male and non-medical students, with statistically significant differences (both P<0.05). About 40.7% of the college students thought that STDs could only be manifested as genital symptoms, and there was a statistically significant difference in recognizing STD symptoms between medical students and non-medical students (P<0.05). 90.6% of the college students thought that they would go to hospital for diagnosis and treatment when STDs occurred, while 4.5% to private clinics. Conclusions Although the students know about basic knowledge about STDs, a large gap in the depth and breadth of knowledge concerning STDs still exists. It is necessary to intensify the targeted health education with an attempt to comprehensively improve their STDs-related knowledge.
