摘要
This study describes current patterns of parent-teen sexual communication and examines the influence of such communication on the sexual attitudes and behaviors of late adolescent females. Data were collected from a statewide sample of young women, ages 19 and 20 gears. Overall, rates of parent-teen sexual risk communication were low. African Americans reported higher rates than Caucasians. Sexual risk communication with mothers was associated with greater condom use self-efficacy and sexual communication with partners.
