简介。尽管性行为与健康(包括临床风险)之间的关系已得到证实,但对当代性行为知之甚少。目的。评估美国青少年和成年人的性行为发生率。方法。我们报告了美国 5,865 名 14 至 94 岁男性和女性的全国代表性概率样本(2,936 名男性, 2,929 名女性)。主要结果测量。评估的行为包括单独手淫、伴侣手淫、给予和接受口交、阴道性交和肛交。结果。手淫在整个生命周期中都很常见,并且在青春期和老年 (70 岁以上) 期间比伴侣性活动更常见。虽然这种情况在 14 至 15 岁的青少年中并不常见,但在过去的一年中,18.3% 的 16 至 17 岁男性和 22.4% 的 16 至 17 岁女性与其他性伴侣进行过口交。同样在过去的一年里,超过一半的 18 至 49 岁的女性和男性进行了口交。过去一年报告过阴道性行为的成年人比例在 25-39 岁的男性和 20-29 岁的女性中最高,然后在年龄较大的群体中逐渐下降。超过 20% 的 25-49 岁男性和 20-39 岁女性在过去一年报告过肛交。去年发生的同性性行为的报道并不常见。结论。男性和女性在整个生命过程中从事各种单独和伴侣的性行为。本报告中提供的当代性行为发生率对于那些制定、实施和评估旨在提高与性行为流行率相关的社会知识的计划的人以及性健康临床医生来说非常有价值,因为他们的工作通常需要这样的行为发生率来改善人群中的性健康。 Herbenick D、Reece M、Schick V、Sanders SA、Dodge B 和 Fortenberry JD。美国的性行为:来自 14-94 岁男性和女性的全国概率样本的结果。 J Sex Med 2010;7(增刊 5):255-265。
Introduction.Despite a demonstrated relationship between sexual behaviors and health, including clinical risks, little is known about contemporary sexual behavior.Aims.To assess the rates of sexual behavior among adolescents and adults in the United States.Methods.We report the recent (past month, past year) and lifetime prevalence of sexual behaviors in a nationally representative probability sample of 5,865 men and women ages 14 to 94 in the United States (2,936 men, 2,929 women).Main Outcome Measures.Behaviors assessed included solo masturbation, partnered masturbation, giving and receiving oral sex, vaginal intercourse, and anal intercourse.Results.Masturbation was common throughout the lifespan and more common than partnered sexual activities during adolescence and older age (70+). Although uncommon among 14- to 15-year olds, in the past year 18.3% of 16- to 17-year-old males and 22.4% of 16- to 17-year-old females performed oral sex with an other-sex partner. Also in the past year, more than half of women and men ages 18 to 49 engaged in oral sex. The proportion of adults who reported vaginal sex in the past year was highest among men ages 25-39 and for women ages 20-29, then progressively declined among older age groups. More than 20% of men ages 25-49 and women ages 20-39 reported anal sex in the past year. Same-sex sexual behaviors occurring in the past year were uncommonly reported.Conclusions.Men and women engage in a diverse range of solo and partnered sexual behaviors throughout the life course. The rates of contemporary sexual behavior provided in this report will be valuable to those who develop, implement, and evaluate programs that seek to improve societal knowledge related to the prevalence of sexual behaviors and to sexual health clinicians whose work to improve sexual health among the population often requires such rates of behavior.
