Title: Sex education attitudes and outcomes among North American women.
Authors: Williams MT (AUTHOR), Bonner L (AUTHOR)
Source: Adolescence. Spring2006, Vol. 41 Issue 161, p1-14. 14p.
Abstract: Attitudes and outcomes of sex education received by North American women are examined via an Internet survey (N = 1,400). Mean age was 19.5, with 24% reporting one or more unplanned pregnancies. Women were more satisfied with sex education from informal sources than from parents, schools, and physicians. Those receiving sex education from parents or schools reported fewer pregnancies and abortions. In school, women receiving a combination of contraceptive and abstinence education and those receiving primarily abstinence education were least likely to experience unplanned pregnancy. Religious identification was significantly related to unplanned pregnancy and type of sex education received from parents. These factors seem to play a significant role in reducing unplanned pregnancy and abortion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
