为了扩大目前相关研究的范围,作者调查了在性行为活跃的男性和女性青少年中哪些育儿行为与性风险有关。父母的养育行为被认为是关于性问题的沟通、支持以及心理和行为控制。通过使用性伴侣数量、避孕措施的一致性和避孕方法的有效性的综合衡量,评估性风险的程度。这项针对350名9-12年级白人学生的调查样本来自2257名初中生和高中生,这是在美国中西部北部两个县进行的一项更大规模研究的一部分。所有抽样调查的青少年都报告至少有过一次性行为,56%的人只与1人发生过性关系,7%的人有过5次或5次以上的性伴侣。56%的人报告经常使用避孕措施,12%的人报告偶尔使用避孕措施,23%的人报告从不或很少使用避孕措施。父母关于性问题的沟通和父母支持与性风险承担没有直接关系,但对于性行为活跃的男性来说,父母支持和沟通之间的交互作用被观察到。然而,这种互动的显着影响是因为有很大比例的高危性活跃男性与他们认为不支持的父母讨论性问题。对于女性来说,父母的心理控制增加了性行为活跃的女儿承担更多性风险的可能性。父母的监督大大降低了性行为活跃的男性和女性青少年成为高风险接受者的几率。
In an attempt to extend the current body of relevant research the author examined which parenting behaviors are related to sexual risk taking among sexually active male and female adolescents. Parenting behaviors considered were communication about sexual issues support and psychological and behavioral controls. The extent of sexual risk taking was assessed through the use of a composite measure of the number of sex partners the consistency of contraceptive use and the effectiveness of contraceptive method used. The sample of 350 mainly White 9th-12th-grade students was drawn from a population of 2257 junior and high school students surveyed as part of a larger study conducted in 2 counties in a northern midwestern state of the US. All of the sampled teens reported having had sexual intercourse at least once with 56% having had sexual relations with only 1 person and 7% having had 5 or more sex partners. 56% reported always using contraception 12% reported occasional contraceptive use and 23% reported never or rarely using contraception. Parental communication about sexual matters and parental support were not directly associated with sexual risk taking but an interaction effect between parental support and communication was observed for sexually active males. However the significant effect of that interaction was due to the large proportion of high-risk sexually active males who discussed sexual issues with a parent they viewed as unsupportive. For females parental psychological control increased the odds that a sexually active daughter would take more sexual risks. Parental monitoring significantly decreased the odds that sexually active male and female adolescents would be high-risk takers.
