Abstract
espanolLos temas vinculados a la sexualidad, y mas especificamente la orientacion sexual, han tomado significativa importancia en los ultimos anos, sobre todo en la adolescencia tanto en ambitos educativos como en el campo de la salud. En Argentina no se dispone de estudios que permitan comprender la naturaleza de la orientacion sexual en adolescentes. Ante la importancia de la tematica, se llevo a cabo un estudio descriptivo con el objetivo de conocer como vivencian la orientacion sexual los adolescentes y su relacion con los factores de personalidad. La muestra se compuso de 418 adolescentes con edades entre 14 y 19 anos (M = 16.76; DT = 1.47). Se realizaron una serie de preguntas acerca de la orientacion sexual, sentimientos, fantasias y experiencias sexuales. Un 60.3% de los adolescentes se identifico como heterosexual, un 23.2% como mayormente heterosexual, un 13.2% como bisexual, un 1.4% como mayormente homosexual, un 1% como homosexual y 0.9% otras orientaciones sexuales. Se observaron relaciones entre la orientacion sexual y los factores de personalidad existiendo una relacion positiva entre las mujeres que se identifican como bisexuales y la apertura a la experiencia, asi como entre aquellos participantes de ambos sexos, heterosexuales y mayormente heterosexuales, y el factor extraversion. Se obtuvo una relacion positiva entre el factor extraversion y los varones que poseen experiencia sexual. Los resultados aqui propuestos dan cuenta de la necesidad de no asumir a la heterosexualidad como norma entre la poblacion adolescente y continuar trabajando en programas de educacion sexual integral EnglishIssues linked to sexuality, and more specifically sexual orientation, have taken on significant importance in recent years, especially in adolescence in both educational and health fields. In Argentina there are no studies to understand the nature of sexual orientation in adolescents. Given the importance of the subject, a descriptive study was carried out with the aim of knowing how adolescents experience sexual orientation and their relationship with personality traits. The sample consisted of 418 adolescents aged between 14 and 19 years (M = 16.76, SD = 1.47). A series of questions were asked about sexual orientation, feelings, fantasies and sexual experiences. 60.3% of adolescents identified as heterosexual, 23.2% as mostly heterosexual, 13.2% as bisexual, 1.4% as mostly homosexual, 1% as homosexual and 0.9% as other sexual orientations. Relationships between sexual orientation and personality factors were observed, there being a positive relationship between women who identify themselves as bisexual and openness to experience, as well as between those of both sexes, heterosexual and mostly heterosexual, and the extraversion factor. A positive relationship was obtained between the extraversion factor and males who have sexual experience. The results proposed here reflect the need not to assume heterosexuality as a norm among the adolescent population and continue to work in comprehensive sexuality education programs.
