本文呼吁注意与巴西东北部和东南部地区青少年的性行为和生殖行为有关的因素。分析集中在这一过程的三个方面:性行为开始,第一次性关系中避孕药的使用,以及生育。分层模型被实施,因为从同一社区挑选的青少年比来自不同社区的青少年更有可能有相似的性行为和生殖行为。在这三项分析中,受教育程度是最重要的风险因素。受教育5年或以上的女孩在青春期发生第一次性关系的可能性较小,在这种关系中更有可能使用避孕方法,此外,与受教育不到5年的女孩相比,生孩子的风险更小。
This article calls attention to factors associated with sexual and reproductive behavior among adolescents from the Northeast and Southeast regions of Brazil. The analyses focus on three dimensions of this process: sexual initiation, use of contraceptives in the first sexual relationship, and fertility. Hierarchical models are implemented, because adolescents selected from the same community are more likely to have similar sexual and reproductive behavior than those from different communities. Level of schooling was the most important risk factor in the three analyses. Girls with 5 or more years of schooling were less likely to have their first sexual relationship during adolescence and more likely to use contraceptive methods in this relationship, besides demonstrating less risk of having children than their counterparts with less than 5 years of schooling.
