目标.本研究评估了长期的有效性，画线/尊重线，一个理论为基础的课程，旨在减少中学生的性风险行为。这项随机对照试验涉及北方加州的19所学校。对2829名六年级学生进行了为期36个月的跟踪调查。这种干预措施推迟了男孩的性行为开始，但没有推迟女孩的性行为开始。在干预条件下的男孩也表现出显着更大的知识比对照组的学生，认为更少的同伴规范支持性交，有更积极的态度不发生性行为，有更强的性限制，并不太可能在可能导致性行为的情况下。对女孩的心理社会影响是有限的。该方案对男孩有效，但对女孩无效。
Objectives. This study evaluated the long-term effectiveness of Draw the Line/ Respect the Line, a theoretically based curriculum designed to reduce sexual risk behaviors among middle school adolescents.Methods. The randomized controlled trial involved 19 schools in northern California. A cohort of 2829 sixth graders was tracked for 36 months.Results. The intervention delayed sexual initiation among boys, but not girls. Boys in the intervention condition also exhibited significantly greater knowledge than control students, perceived fewer peer norms supporting sexual intercourse, had more positive attitudes toward not having sex, had stronger sexual limits, and were less likely to be in situations that could lead to sexual behaviors. Psychosocial effects for girls were limited.Conclusions. The program was effective for boys, but not for girls.
