Abstract

Background: Adolescent sexual and reproductive health (ASRH) is an important global health issue. Some of the challenges faced by adolescents across the world include early pregnancy and parenthood, difficulties accessing contraception and safe abortion, and high rates of HIV and sexually transmitted infections. However, ASRH has been overlooked historically despite the high risks that countries face for its neglect. This study aimed to examine the effects of religiosity and parental role on risky sexual behavior among adolescents. Subjects and Method: This was a case control study conducted in Madiun, East Java, from April 4 to May 14, 2018. A sample of 150 adolescents was selected for this study by fixed disease sampling. The dependent variable was risky sexual behavior. The independent variables were negative attitude, religiosity, and parental role. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: The risk of risky sexual behavior in adolescents decreased with strong parental role (OR= 0.25; 95% CI<0.01 to 0.56; p= 0.020) and religiosity (OR= 0.12; 95% CI= 0.01 to 0.21; p= 0.002), but increased with negative attitude (OR= 28.57; 95% CI= 1.44 to 5.64; p= 0.028). Conclusion: The risk of risky sexual behavior in adolescents decrease with strong parental role and religiosity, but increases with negative attitude. Keywords: risky sexual behavior, religiosity, parental role, adolescents
宗教信仰能抑制青少年的危险性行为吗?
背景:青少年性健康和生殖健康(ASRH)是一个重要的全球卫生问题。世界各地青少年面临的一些挑战包括早孕和生育,难以获得避孕和安全堕胎,以及艾滋病毒和性传播感染率高。然而,尽管各国因忽视ASRH而面临很高的风险,但ASRH在历史上一直被忽视。本研究旨在探讨宗教信仰和父母角色对青少年危险性行为的影响。研究对象和方法:本研究于2018年4月4日至5月14日在东爪哇马迪恩进行病例对照研究。采用固定疾病抽样的方法,选取150名青少年为研究对象。因变量为危险性行为。自变量为消极态度、宗教信仰、父母角色。采用问卷调查法收集资料,采用多元logistic回归分析。结果:父母角色越强,青少年发生危险性行为的风险越低(OR= 0.25;95% CI<0.01 ~ 0.56;p= 0.020)和宗教信仰(OR= 0.12;95% CI= 0.01 ~ 0.21;p= 0.002),但随着消极态度的增加而增加(OR= 28.57;95% CI= 1.44 ~ 5.64;p = 0.028)。结论:父母角色和宗教信仰越强,青少年发生危险性行为的风险越低,消极态度越高。关键词:危险性行为,宗教信仰,父母角色,青少年
