Approximately 50% of new HIV infections in the US occur in teenagers, with African American females making up a disproportionate number. The purpose of this study was to identify factors that could encourage delaying sexual debut. Twenty-eight African American mothers and their early adolescent daughters were recruited from four inner-city community centers. Seven separate focus groups were conducted for mothers and daughters using principles of Participatory Action Research. Four codes emerged from the data: social norms regarding sex, males, self-esteem, and family structure. These codes support the importance of an intervention to facilitate sexual communication between a mother and her daughter.
在美国，约50%的新增艾滋病毒感染发生在青少年中，其中非裔美国女性占比过高。本研究的目的是确定可能促使推迟首次性行为的因素。从四个市中心社区中心招募了28位非裔美国母亲及其青春期早期的女儿。运用参与式行动研究原则，为母亲和女儿分别组织了七个焦点小组。数据中出现了四个编码：关于性、男性、自尊和家庭结构的社会规范。这些编码支持了进行干预以促进母亲与女儿之间性交流的重要性。
