1991年CDC青少年危险行为调查的横断面分析探讨了与首次性交年龄较早相关的因素。 近18%的白色男性、49%的黑人男性、5%的白色女性和12%的黑人女性在13岁之前性活跃。 携带武器上学、打架和早期（<13岁）尝试吸烟和饮酒与所有四个种族和性别分组的早期性活动有关。 那些早期开始性行为的人有更多的伴侣，但经常使用避孕套的可能性要低50%，怀孕或导致怀孕的可能性要高出2 - 7倍。 早期开始性活动的女性更有可能患有性传播疾病（STD）。 推迟性活动的干预措施需要根据这些分析中观察到的种族和性别差异进行调整。 干预措施必须在13岁之前开始，并且应该是以学校为基础的全面努力。
This cross-sectional analysis of the 1991 CDC Youth Risk Behavior Survey explored factors associated with an early age at first sexual intercourse. Almost 18% of White males, 49% of Black males, 5% of White females and 12% of Black females were sexually active before age 13. Carrying a weapon to school, fighting, and early (< age 13) experimentation with cigarettes and alcohol were associated with early initiation of sexual activity for all four race and gender groupings. Those initiating sexual activity early had greater numbers of partners but were 50% less likely to use condoms regularly and were two-seven times more likely to have been pregnant or caused a pregnancy. Females who initiated sexual activity early were more likely to have had a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Interventions to postpone sexual activity need to be tailored to the ethnic and gender differences observed in these analyses. Interventions must begin before age 13 and should be comprehensive school-based efforts.
