简介：西班牙裔青少年怀孕是一种人们知之甚少的现象，其社会文化影响众多且相互重叠。自 1995 年以来，拉美裔青少年怀孕率一直是美国最高的，但与其他族裔相比，其怀孕率下降速度要慢得多。调查美国长期拉美裔青年以及影响他们决策过程和性行为的因素的文献有限。目的：本研究旨在探讨和描述来自新墨西哥州长期家庭的西班牙裔女性青少年与青少年怀孕和养育子女相关的态度和行为，这些青少年的主要语言是英语，并且在参与之前的 12 个月内经历过怀孕和母亲的经历。方法：这是一项在新墨西哥州青少年怀孕率较高且人口以长期居住的西班牙裔为主的地区进行的一项重点人种学定性研究。数据是通过对 10 名青少年母亲和 10 名成年人的访谈以及参与观察收集的。通过浸泡和结晶对数据进行归纳分析。结果：该研究的主要发现包括青少年家庭的混乱/不稳定、与生殖问题相关的沟通水平低、家庭和社区对青少年怀孕和社区未来目标表示的失望。结论：研究结果将有助于增加与长期西班牙裔青年以及影响其性决定和行为的许多社会文化因素相关的知识基础。
Introduction: Teen pregnancy in Hispanic youth is a poorly understood phenomenon with numerous and overlapping sociocultural influences. Hispanics have had the highest teen pregnancy rates in the United States since 1995 and pregnancy rates that have declined much more slowly when compared to every other ethnic group. Literature investigating long-term Hispanic youth of the United States and the factors influencing their decision-making processes and sexual behaviours is limited. Purpose: This study aimed to explore and describe attitudes and behaviours related to teen pregnancy and parenting in Hispanic female teens from long-term families in New Mexico, whose primary language was English and who have experienced pregnancy and motherhood in the 12 months prior to participation. Methods: This was a focused-ethnographic qualitative study conducted in areas of New Mexico with high rates of teen pregnancy and where the population is majority Hispanic with long-term residency. Data were collected in interviews with 10 adolescent mothers and 10 adults, and through participant observation. Data were analysed inductively through immersion and crystallisation. Results: Key findings of the study include chaos/instability characterising the homes of youth, low levels of communication related to reproductive issues, disappointment expressed by families and community in response to teen pregnancy and community goals for the future. Conclusions: The study results will aid in increasing the knowledge base related to long-term Hispanic youth and the many sociocultural factors affecting their sexual decisions and behaviours.
