The purpose of this study was to examine longitudinal changes in compensated dating (CD) and juvenile prostitution (JP) behaviors and related psychosocial correlates among Hong Kong adolescents.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: In this study, adolescent CD and JP behaviors were examined in 3 waves (namely wave 2, 3, and 4) of a longitudinal study. At wave 2 (2010-2011), 3638 secondary 2 students (grade 8) from 28 schools participated in the study (mean age, 13.60 years; SD = 0.72). In the following 2 academic years (2011-2012 and 2012-2013), they were invited to respond to the same questionnaire. A total of 2921 students completed the questionnaire in 3 waves and their results were analyzed.
The number of CD cases was higher than JP cases. Although there was a decline in CD cases at wave 4, the number of JP cases increased at wave 4. Although there was some support for the influence of family intactness and positive youth development on CD and JP, the evidence was not strong. The effects of gender, economic disadvantage, and family functioning on CD and JP were not significant.
There was a decrease in CD but an increase in JP in the 3 waves of data. However, there was a fluctuation of CD over the years which made it difficult to identify a stable pattern. Some possible explanations for such a fluctuation and the related nonsignificant findings are proposed.
本研究旨在探讨香港青少年有偿约会（CD）和青少年卖淫（JP）行为的纵向变化及其相关的心理社会因素。
设计、背景和参与者：在本研究中，对一项纵向研究的3个阶段（即第2、3和4阶段）的青少年CD和JP行为进行了调查。在第2阶段（2010 - 2011年），来自28所学校的3638名初二学生（8年级）参与了研究（平均年龄13.60岁；标准差 = 0.72）。在接下来的两个学年（2011 - 2012年和2012 - 2013年），邀请他们回答相同的问卷。共有2921名学生在3个阶段完成了问卷并对其结果进行了分析。
有偿约会案例的数量高于青少年卖淫案例。虽然在第4阶段有偿约会案例有所下降，但青少年卖淫案例在第4阶段有所增加。虽然有一些证据支持家庭完整性和积极的青少年发展对有偿约会和青少年卖淫的影响，但证据并不充分。性别、经济劣势和家庭功能对有偿约会和青少年卖淫的影响并不显著。
在3个阶段的数据中，有偿约会行为减少，但青少年卖淫行为增加。然而，多年来有偿约会行为存在波动，难以确定稳定的模式。针对这种波动及相关不显著结果提出了一些可能的解释。
