Perceived use of health education services in a school-based clinic

This study assessed 1087 adolescents attending public school in Grades 10, 11, 12, and perceived use of health education services in a school-based clinic. Adolescents reported the most frequent health services they would use were nutrition/body weight, sex education, and mental health services. In addition, sex differences were found for perceived health education services as more girls than boys reported they would more likely use services for nutrition/overweight and underweight, information on unwanted pregnancy, counseling, and clinics to treat the blues.
