Adolescents and Communication Regarding Sex and
Contraception. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Oct 2008, Pages: 52
This study focused on 18- and 19-year old late
adolescents, seeking to increase our understanding
of the theoretical frameworks associated with
adolescent sexual and contraceptive communicative
behavior. Identity and self esteem were used to
investigate these antecedents’ influence on
adolescent communication, including communication
self efficacy, comfort discussing sex and
contraception, and perceived communication self
efficacy regarding sex and contraception. This study
offered a framework for understanding adolescent
communication related to sex and contraception,
illustrating that adolescents’ identity status does
increase communication efficacy. However, the
results did not confirm a relationship between
identity status, and sex and contraceptive
discussions.
