Abstract

The aims of this study were to identify the significant predictors of the sexual behavior of middle school students. The subjects consisted of 603 middle school students (male 344, female 259). The data was collected through self-report questionnaires, which were constructed to include the attitudes to sexual behavior, sexual permissiveness, perceived behavioral control, sexual behavioral intention, father's child-rearing attitudes, mother's child-rearing attitudes, friends' attitudes to sex, exposure to pornography, and sexual behavior. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 19.0 program. The significant predictors of sexual behavior of middle school students that explained 51.0% of the variance in sexual behavior were the friends' attitudes to sex, alcohol drinking experience, experience of sexual abuse, sexual permissiveness, exposure to pornography, sexual behavioral intention, perceived behavioral control, father's child-rearing attitudes, and mother's child-rearing attitudes. These findings suggest that the approach to a sexual education promotion program for middle school students should consider multisystemic predictors.

본 연구는 중학생의 성행동 정도를 알아보고, 아울러 중학생의 성행동에 대한 다체계적 관련요인을 파악하여, 성행동 예방의 조기개입인 간호중재방안 마련을 위한 기초자료를 제시하고자 시행되었다. 대상자는 603명의 중학생이었고, 자료는 일반적 특성과 성태도, 성허용성, 지각된 행위통제, 성행동 의도, 아버지 양육태도, 어머니 양육태도, 친구집단 성태도, 음란물 접촉 및 성행동으로 구성된 자가보고 질문지로 수집되었다. 자료분석은 SPSS 19.0 프로그램을 이용하였다. 연구 결과, 중학생의 성행동 관련요인으로는 친구집단 성태도, 음주 경험, 성학대 경험, 성허용성, 음란물 접촉, 성행동 의도, 지각된 행위통제, 아버지의 양육태도 및 어머니의 양육 태도 순이었으며, 이들 요인들은 중학생 성행동을 51.0% 설명하였다. 결론적으로 중학생의 성행동 예방을 위해서는 본 연구에서 파악된 다체계적 성행동 관련요인을 고려한 통합적 성교육 프로그램의 적용할 수 있을 것이며, 이러한 접근은 중학생의 성행동 예방을 위한 학교 및 지역사회에서 접근 가능한 정신건강간호 전략이 될 수 있을 것이다.
