Abstract

AbstractLimited research is available on the acceptability of comprehensive sex education for economically marginalized Black youth. The current evaluation study collected quantitative self-report data from 109 high-school-aged predominately Black or African American economically marginalized youth after completing a comprehensive sex education program. Youth reported positive experiences with the program, improvement in socioemotional skill development, and increases in sexual risk avoidance behavior. Youth report of quality of experience predicted youth sexual risk avoidance. These findings serve as evidence for tailoring comprehensive sex education programs to youth demographic variables.Keywords: Comprehensive sex educationeconomically marginalized youthblack youthadolescent healthsexual risk avoidance Disclosure StatementThe authors report there are no competing interests to declare.

透视中的价值:综合性教育项目:黑人青年的经验

摘要关于经济边缘黑人青年接受综合性教育的可接受性的研究有限。目前的评估研究收集了109名高中年龄(主要是黑人或非裔美国人)在完成综合性教育项目后的定量自我报告数据。青少年报告了参与该项目的积极经历，社会情感技能的发展有所改善，性风险规避行为也有所增加。青少年经验质量报告预测青少年性风险规避。这些发现为针对青少年人口变量制定综合性教育计划提供了证据。关键词:综合性教育经济边缘青年黑人青少年健康性风险规避披露声明作者报告无利益冲突需要申报。本研究由美国卫生与公众服务管理局儿童与家庭部资助，资助编号HHS-2023-ACF-ACYF-SR-0035, CFDA编号:93.060
