The purpose of this study is to provide substantial foundation to establish effective sex education plan for female college students. For this purpose, we compared female college students with health related majors and the ones with non-health related majors in knowledge in sex, attitude toward sex, and sexual experience. We took the form of self-recording to survey 269 single female college students. The result is as follows. For knowledge in sex, including reproductive organs, contraception, delivery, sexual disease, and sexual intercourse, students with health-related majors(20.59) gained higher scores than students with non-health related majors(16.82). Scores for attitude toward sex indicated 2.43 for the health related majors and 2.35 for the non-health related majors. Attitude toward pre-marital sex, sex admissibility, and abortion showed especially distinct result between the two groups. Whether a student has ever engaged in sexual intercourse served as a significant variable to determine knowledge in sex overall, and the indexes such as sexual pleasure, chasteness, marital values, and attitude towards sex indicated significant differences. The result may be interpreted that the students with sexual experience tend to show more open attitude toward sex. The result indicated that contraception, pregnancy, and delivery were the parts that the participants most wanted to be educated on. Knowledge in sex is both positively correlated with attitude toward sex and sexual behavior. Also, the result indicates that knowledge in sex, both subjective and objective, significantly affects sexual behavior.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to identify the relation of sexual orientation and suicidal ideation. Methods: The study includes 33,309 Korean high school students: 31,213 of whom had no experience of sexual intercourse, 1,739 had heterosexual sexual intercourse, 191 had homosexual sex, and 166 had bisexual intercourse. The study used the 12th(2016) Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey with complex sample logistic regression. Results: Adjusted confounding variables related to suicidal ideation of participants except for sexual orientation were analyzed, and suicidal ideation was higher in the homosexual and bisexual groups. These two groups showed a higher risk of suicidal ideation (homosexual: OR=2.28, 95% CI:1.54-3.39) (bisexual: OR=2.78, 95% CI:1.61-4.81). Conclusions: The study results showed sexual orientation was associated with suicidal ideation. Further studies and evaluations are needed.

This study was to understand associated factors with frequent exposure to Internet pornography among Korean adolescents. We used data (N = 45,783) from the 2012 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey to examine demographics, family environmental variables, Internet use time, mental health indicators, sexual behavior, and delinquency among Korean adolescents identified as frequent users of Internet pornography. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that frequent users of Internet pornography were more likely to be older males with differences in living arrangements and perceived economic status of the family. They were heavy Internet users with mental health issues, such as a higher likelihood of sadness, suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, high stress, and a lower likelihood of feeling happiness. Their higher probability of exploratory (OR =1.79-4.60), and high-risk sexual behavior (OR = 2.20-7.46), and other delinquencies (OR = 1.74-7.68) requires more attention from public health professionals.

청소년들은 상당한 수준의 인터넷 이용기술을 보유하고 광범위하게 인터넷을 이용하고 있지만, 성인에 비해 성 경험이 많지 않아 성에 대한 올바른 시각을 갖기 어렵다. 이러한 특징으로 인해 인터넷 음란물은 청소년의 성행태에 심각한 폐해를 야기할 수 있다. 이러한 문제의식에서 본 연구는 청소년이 평소에 갖고 있는 성정향성, 인터넷 음란물 노출 및 노출 후 행태 사이의 인과관계 구조를 PLS 구조모형 분석으로 탐색하였다. 분석결과 음란물 노출에 남성중심주의적 성정향성과 음란물 허용적 성정향성이 영향을 미치고 있었다. 또한 인터넷 음란물 노출은 성충동과 성행동에 직접적인 영향을 미치고 있었고, 성충동을 매개로 성행동에 간접적인 영향을 미치고 있었다. 본 연구의 의의는 기존연구에서 인터넷 음란물 노출의 종속변인으로 취급되었던 변인들을 성정향성으로 재개념화하여 인터넷 음란물의 예측변인임을 확인하였다는 점과 청소년의 인터넷 음란물 접촉이 성충동을 자극하여 성행동에 영향을 미치고 종국에는 성범죄를 유발할 수 있다는 사회통념을 간접적으로 확인하였다는 것이다.

본 연구의 목적은 성 경험이 있는 대학생들의 태도, 주관적 규범, 지각된 행위통제 및 의도와 안전한 성행위 간의 관계를 확인하기 위한 것이다. 본 연구는 서울시 소재 일개 종합대학교에 재학 중인 남녀 학생 중 성경험이 있는 388명을 대상으로 하였다. 본 연구는 주제가 매우 사적이고 민감하므로 자료수집은 온라인과 모바일을 통해서 2013년 4월 1일부터 4월 14일까지 이루어졌다. 수집된 자료의 분석은 SPSS 21.0 프로그램을 사용하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 안전한 성행위는 주관적 규범(r=.235, p<.001), 지각된 행위통제(r=.286, p<.001), 안전한 성행위 의도(r=.455, p<.001)와 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 본 연구 결과를 대학생들을 대상으로 한 성교육 프로그램이나 성 상담 프로그램 등의 성건강 증진을 위한 간호중재 전략의 개발에 이용할 것을 제언한다.

Purpose: This study was done to identify contraceptive practices in adolescent girls in South Korea and predictors of contraceptive practices. Methods: The study sample included 743 girls who had experienced sexual activity. Using statistics from the 12th (2016) Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey, hierarchical logistic regression analysis was conducted. Results: The contraceptive practice rate for adolescent girls was 34%. Contraceptive practice was associated with 'age at first intercourse' and 'sexual intercourse after drinking'. For adolescent girls who had early sexual initiation and drank alcohol before sexual intercourse there was a tendency to reduce the practice of contraception. Conclusion: It is necessary to provide practical sex education to improve the practice of contraception in these adolescents. In addition, adolescent girls should be encourage to delay their first intercourse. The results of this study can also be used to develop education interventions regarding healthy sexuality behaviour including the practice of contraception.

Using 497 university students in Korea, this study investigates factors related to university students' sexual behaviors. Multiple regression analyses are performed to assess best model on premarital sexual behavior. the results indicate that there is no difference on the levels of premarital sexual behavior for males and females, except on sexual intercourse. While love for the partner and relationship aspects are best predictors for less experienced males and followed by dating experience, for less experienced females, situational aspects and their own and partner's chastity are positively and negatively related to premarital sexual behaviors of highly experienced males and females, respectively. Other variables related to sexual permissiveness, in general, by sex are also discussed.

The purpose of this study is to explore into the Korean Women's sexual life in terms of sexual behavior, sexual attitudes, and sexual experiences. In recent years, it has been generally recognized in both academic area and general publics that traditional norms, values, and patterns of behavior have been rapidly changing in Korea, thus being replaced by new ones. 1. The prevailing preconception that Korean women are sexwise traditional and conservative seems to be no longer true in the present days. 2. In this country, their sexual behaviors and attitudes at least within their marriage have been already westernized, being very similar to those of western women. 3. Knowledge and information of sexual matters held by Korean women prior to their marriage seems to be very limited, compared to those of western women. 4. It seems that Korean women have developed positive attitudes toward sex education practice in their family.

Objectives : This study was conducted in order to investigate the influence of sexual trauma on the psychopathology and quality of life of children and adolescents in Korea. Methods : Twenty-seven children and adolescents and their caretakers who visited the Kangwon Sunflower Center participated in a cross-sectional study. Participants completed the Korean version of Kiddie-Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia-Present and Lifetime Version, Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), and Child Health Questionnaire-Parent Form-50 (CHQ-PF-50). Their scores were compared with those of a age and sex-matched control group of 27 healthy children and adolescents. Results : Victims of sexual violence showed higher t score in Withdrawn, Social problems, Delinquent behavior, Externalizing problems, and Total problems in CBCL, compared with control group. In CHQ-PF-50, there were lower scores on Bodily pain/discomfort, Behavior, Mental health, Time impact in parents, and Family activities subscales in victims of sexual violence. While Behavior and Family activities subscale showed negative correlations with Delinquent behavior, Externalizing problems, and Total problems in CBCL. Mental health subscale showed negative correlations with Social problems, Delinquent behavior, Externalizing problems, and Total problems. In addition, Time impact on parent subscale showed a negative association with Delinquent behavior in CBCL. Conclusion : The current study provided evidence suggesting that victims of sexual violence had a higher level of psychopathology and lower level of quality of life.
