An investigation into young people's attitudes, experiences and beliefs on menstrual health

这项研究探索了最近政府政策、关系和性教育以及流行文化的转变是否影响了年轻人对月经和月经污名的态度。这项研究将让参与者使用一系列定性的、创造性的方法来解决以下问题：1.年轻人对月经的具体体验是什么？2.关于耻辱和羞耻的话语在年轻人关于月经的讨论中占了多大比重？3.这个项目的研究结果如何为威尔士关于月经教育的新的跨学科方法提供信息？这些问题的目的是让参与者参与围绕月经的主题讨论。其基本原理是鼓励围绕社会、经济、政治、关系和教育主题进行讨论，因为这些主题与年轻人及其在学校环境中的月经经历有关。在年轻人中进行校本研究的伦理问题是相当重要的，并得到充分认识，并计划采取适当的步骤来解决这些问题。

This research explores whether recent shifts in government policy, Relationship and Sexuality Education and popular culture are influencing young people's attitudes towards menstruation and menstruation stigma. The research will engage with participants using a range of qualitative, creative methods to address the following questions: 1. What are young people's embodied experiences of menstruation? 2. To what extent do discourses of stigma and shame feature in young people's discussions of menstruation? 3. How might the research findings from this project inform Wales's new, interdisciplinary approach to education on menstruation? These questions aim to engage with participants in thematic discussions around menstruation. The rationale is to encourage discussions around social, economic, political, relational, and educational themes as they pertain to young people and their experiences of menstruation within a school environment. The ethical issues of school-based research with young people are considerable and fully recognised, with appropriate steps planned to address them.
