PSI/U implements a Cross Generational Sex (Cross Gen) Pilot Program in three universities, which are Makerere University (MUK), Makerere University Business School (MUBS), and Kyambogo University (KU). For PSI programming purposes, Cross Gen is defined as a sexual relationship between a woman below 24 years and a man who is at least 10 years older. The study sought to determine the prevalence of the practice and the opportunity, ability and motivation constructs relating to it. A Cross Gen B
aseline Tracking Survey was conducted in March 2005 among female students aged 18-24 in relation to cross-generational sex. The results are meant to guide the roll out of the Cross Gen Pilot Program in the three universities. This study aims to answer two questions relating to monitoring and segmentation:

1. Monitoring: What are the levels and trends in the logical framework indicators for Cross Generational Sex? These include behavior, behavioral determinants for opportunity, ability and motivation.

2. Segmentation: Which behavioral determinants for opportunity, ability and motivation and population characteristics are correlated with behavior?

The 2005 Cross Generation Baseline TRaC Survey collected information from randomly selected university female students aged 18-2
4 in Makerere University (MUK), Makerere University Business School (MUBS), and Kyambogo University (KU), with a total sample of 891 female students. The sampling frame was based on the three Universities. The design employed a multi-stage sampling technique to randomly select female students aged 19-24 in their 1st and 2nd year at the university.
