in Journal of Pediatric Nursing > Vol.37 No.6 (Nov-Dec) 2017 [03/29/2018] . - p.e16-e22Keywords: Adolescents, Sexual behavior, Gender differences, Contraception, Korea Abstract: Purpose
The purposes of this study were to identify whether there are gender differences in sexual behaviors among Korean adolescents and to explore the factors that influence safe sex practices across both sexes.
Methods
A secondary analysis was conducted using nationally representative data obtained from the 2014 Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey. Sample consisted of 3,210 adolescents who had experience of sexual intercourse. The dependent variable in this study was practicing safe sex. The independent variables included a range of individual, family, and school factors.
Results
Female adolescents were less likely to practice safe sex (i.e., always using a condom). Individual (smoking, no drinking before sexual intercourse), family (living with parents, higher allowance per week) and school factors (non-coeducational school students, had received school-based sex education) were significant predictors of practicing safe sex in males. In contrast, family (lower economic status) and school factors (middle school students) predicted practicing safe sex among female adolescents.
Conclusion
We demonstrated that gender plays an important role in the sexual behavior of adolescents. The findings of this study indicate a need to design and implement gender-specific interventions.Link for e-copy: http://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-pediatric-nursing/ Record link: http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=27639 [article] Gender Differences in Sexual Behaviors in Korean Adolescents [printed text] / Hong, Eunyoung, Author ; Kang, Youngmi, Author . - 2018 . - p.e16-e22.
