An epidemiological study was carried out among 4,255 adolescents, aged 11-19 years, randomly selected from secondary schools in a northern urban area of France. The questionnaire concerned sexual activity, contraception, health status, licit and illicit drug consumption, and other risk-taking behavior. A total of 31% of the adolescents had had sexual relations (43% of the boys, 20% of the girls). Sexual activity increased with age. A large majority (70%) of the sexually active adolescents used some form of contraception. The study confirms the relationship between smoking, drinking, illicit drug consumption, and sexual activity, but shows that contraceptive behavior is not related to problem behavior.
在法国北部城市地区的中学中随机抽取了4255名年龄在11至19岁之间的青少年进行了一项流行病学研究。调查问卷涉及性行为、避孕、健康状况、合法和非法药物消费以及其他冒险行为。共有31%的青少年有过性行为(男孩为43%,女孩为20%)。性行为随年龄增长而增加。绝大多数(70%)有性行为的青少年使用了某种形式的避孕措施。该研究证实了吸烟、饮酒、非法药物消费与性行为之间的关系,但表明避孕行为与问题行为无关。
