探讨青春期少女多个性伴与其他危险行为的关系。方法:9至12(th)年级性活跃的女孩(N=3288)谁完成了1999年全国青年危险行为调查的参与者。多变量逻辑回归用于检查所有显著的独立关系。结果如下:最近有一个性伴侣与缺乏安全套使用和12年级有关,而有2个或更多的性伴侣与打架,吸烟,酗酒和非裔美国人种族有关。结论:一个小的,但重要的子集的青春期女孩报告最近有多个性伴侣。这些女孩更有可能报告其他容易出现问题的健康行为。
To examine the relationship of multiple sexual-partners to other risk behaviors among adolescent girls. Methods: Ninth-through 12(th)-grade sexually active girls (N=3288) who completed the 1999 national Youth Risk Behavior Survey were participants. Multivariate logistic regression was used to examine all significant independent relationships. Results: Having one recent sexual-partner was associated with lack of condom use and being in 12(th) grade whereas having 2 or more partners was associated with fighting, cigarette use, binge drinking, and African American ethnicity. Conclusions: A small but important subset of adolescent girls report having recent multiple sexual-partners. These girls are more likely to report other problem-prone health behaviors.
