In a longitudinal dataset of 470 Dutch adolescents, the current study examined the ways in which early sexual initiation was related to subsequent attachment, self-perception, internalizing problems, and externalizing problems. For male adolescents, analyses revealed general attachment to mother and externalizing problems at Wave 1 to predict to early transition at Wave 2. However, there was no differential change in these psychosocial factors over time for early initiators of sexual intercourse and their non-initiating peers. For female adolescents, the model including psychosocial factors at Wave 1 did not predict to sexual initiation at Wave 2. However, univariate repeated measures analyses revealed early initiators to have significantly larger increases in self-concept and externalizing problems than their non-initiating female peers. While the difference between female early initiators and non-initiators were statistically significant, the mean levels of problem behaviors were very low. The findings suggest that, contrary to previous research, early sexual initiation does not seem to be clustered with problem behaviors for this sample of Dutch adolescents.
在一项针对 470 名荷兰青少年的纵向数据研究中，本研究探讨了早期性开始与随后的依恋、自我认知、内化问题和外化问题之间的关系。对于男性青少年，分析显示，第 1 波的一般依恋和母亲以及外化问题预测了第 2 波的早期转变。然而，对于早期开始性行为的青少年及其未开始性行为的同龄人来说，这些心理社会因素并没有随着时间的推移而发生差异变化。对于女性青少年，包括第 1 波心理社会因素的模型并不能预测第 2 波的性行为开始。然而，单变量重复测量分析显示，早期开始者的自我概念和外化问题的增长明显大于其未开始的女性同龄人。虽然女性早期开始者和未开始者之间存在统计学上的显著差异，但问题行为的平均水平非常低。研究结果表明，与之前的研究相反，对于这个荷兰青少年样本，早期性行为开始似乎并不与问题行为聚集在一起。
