Publisher Description

Abstract: This study examined predictors of middle school students' perceptions of the quality of the sexual health education (SHE) they had received from their parents. Participants were 599 (53% girls) adolescents in grades 6, 7 and 8 who completed a survey at school. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses revealed that students' perceptions of higher quality school-based SHE and parents' more frequent encouragement of questions about sexuality contributed uniquely to perceptions of higher quality SHE by parents. Adolescent characteristics did not contribute uniquely. The implications of these results for parents' sexual communication with their adolescents during the middle school years are discussed.
