Aims and objectives: To gain insight into these behaviors and preventative efforts, this study explored the experiences and perceptions of 15 pregnant adolescents using a qualitative feminist approach and in-depth interviews. Methods: As participants discussed sex education, each identified influences on sexual decision-making that often overpowered the information received. Results: Content analysis and constant comparison of this data led to the overarching theme 'Drivers for Sexual Risk-taking.' Drivers were categorized as internal and external and each demonstrated a significant influence on adolescent sexual decision-making. Conclusion: Results of this study can inform the development of educational efforts, reform of social policy, and the focus of future research. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
