Abstract

This study examined individual and familial influences on Black female adolescents’ (N = 1426) sexual pleasure expectancies, sexual guilt, and age of sexual debut using data from the National Longitudinal Study on Adolescent to Adult Health. Results indicated significant differences between Black female adolescents that were sexually active and those that were not. Religious importance, having a residential father, and perceived pubertal timing were significantly associated with sexual guilt and pleasure expectancies. Religious importance and perceived pubertal timing were also associated with later ages of sexual debut. These results have implications for sexuality education and future research using sex positive and intimate justice frameworks.

摘要

这项研究 使用了《国家青少年到成人健康纵向研究》的数据，考察了个人和家庭对黑人女性青少年（N = 1426）的性快感期望，性罪恶感和性初次出现年龄的影响。结果表明，性活跃的黑人女性青少年与未活跃的黑人女性青少年之间存在显着差异。宗教的重要性，有一个常住的父亲以及感知的青春期时机与性内感和愉悦期望显着相关。宗教重要性和感知的青春期时机也与性行为初次出现的年龄有关。这些结果对性教育和使用性积极和亲密司法框架的未来研究具有启示意义。
