Abstract
A large and complex array of risk and protective factors influence adolescents' sexual behavior and their risk for sexually transmitted diseases. Programs designed to reduce sexually transmitted diseases in adolescents should take a focused and integrated approach that addresses the modifiable biologic, cognitive, psychologic, behavioral, and social issues affecting adolescent sexual risk.
