Teen Perceptions of Sexual Activity: Influences, consequences, realities, and thoughts on safe sexual health
Abstract:
Teens' engagement in sexual activity and safe sexual practices is an important public health issue in the US today. This descriptive survey study explored teens' thoughts about the influences, consequences, and realities associated with teen sexual activity and pregnancy and their perceptions of access to sexual health education and contraception. Surveys were administered to 856 Delaware youth in 39 high school health classes from 16 schools. Of the 31 survey items, 25 offered significantly different responses; participants agreed with 16 and disagreed with 9 items (p < .005), revealing important findings concerning teen perceptions as the basis for meaningful interventions.
