ABSTRACT

Adolescent sexual development is informed by individual, relational, generational, institutional, and cultural perspectives. Families matter: they are the social institution at the intersection of adolescent development and broader social systems, charged with the responsibility for rearing children and adolescents to adulthood. This narrative review maps insights from family theory and research onto adolescent sexual development research. Our purpose is to inform sexuality researchers from diverse fields about how family perspectives can enrich understanding of adolescent sexual development. We present the critical, intersectional theoretical framework guiding this review as consisting of three meta-themes for understanding families through an examination of family structure, process, and context. Then, we apply those meta-themes to current research on adolescent sexual development by selectively organizing our review around the contexts of family structural diversity and family relational complexity, demonstrating that both the structure and the process components are embedded within the intersectional and cultural contexts that shape and are shaped by families. Our review demonstrates that diverse, intersectional family structures and transitions may affect adolescent sexual development by influencing family processes, particularly around sexual communication. We conclude with implications of using family perspectives for future inquiry related to adolescent sexual development.

青少年性发育:家庭视角

摘要

青少年的性发育受个人、关系、世代、制度和文化观点的影响。家庭很重要:他们是青少年发展和更广泛社会系统交叉点的社会机构,负责抚养儿童和青少年到成年。这篇叙述性评论将家庭理论和研究的见解映射到青少年性发展研究上。我们的目的是让来自不同领域的性研究人员了解家庭观点如何丰富对青少年性发展的理解。我们提出了指导这篇评论的批判性、交叉的理论框架,它由三个元主题组成,通过对家庭结构、过程和背景的检查来理解家庭。然后,我们通过围绕家庭结构多样性和家庭关系复杂性的背景有选择地组织我们的审查,将这些元主题应用于当前关于青少年性发展的研究,证明结构和过程成分都嵌入在塑造和是由家庭塑造的。我们的审查表明,多样化的、交叉的家庭结构和转变可能会通过影响家庭进程,尤其是围绕性交流的进程来影响青少年的性发育。我们总结了使用家庭观点对未来与青少年性发育相关的调查的影响。证明结构和过程组件都嵌入在塑造家庭并由家庭塑造的交叉和文化背景中。我们的审查表明,多样化的、交叉的家庭结构和转变可能会通过影响家庭进程,尤其是围绕性交流的进程来影响青少年的性发育。我们总结了使用家庭观点对未来与青少年性发育相关的调查的影响。证明结构和过程组件都嵌入在塑造家庭并由家庭塑造的交叉和文化背景中。我们的审查表明,多样化的、交叉的家庭结构和转变可能会通过影响家庭进程,尤其是围绕性交流的进程来影响青少年的性发育。我们总结了使用家庭观点对未来与青少年性发育相关的调查的影响。
