A literature review was undertaken to identify key factors associated with teenage pregnancy in Jamaica. Using the PEN-3 cultural model, we first categorised these factors to develop a theoretical taxonomy that can be used to help health intervention planners to understand and address the phenomenon. Next, we examined the validity of this initial taxonomy by comparing it with cultural factors identified in semi-structured focus group discussions with Jamaican teenage mothers. Cultural factors identified in the initial literature review - such as parental interaction and control, the intergenerational transmission of teenage pregnancy and experiences of sexual abuse - were largely confirmed and built upon. Results highlight promising opportunities for health communication among young women in Jamaica with a focus on self-efficacy, resilience and positive cultural factors.
进行了文献回顾,以确定与牙买加少女怀孕相关的关键因素。我们首先使用 PEN-3 文化模型对这些因素进行分类,以制定一个理论分类法,帮助卫生干预规划者理解和解决这一现象。接下来,我们通过将其与牙买加少女母亲半结构式焦点小组讨论中确定的文化因素进行比较,检验了这一初始分类法的有效性。在初始文献综述中确定的文化因素,如父母互动和控制、少女怀孕的代际传递以及性虐待经历,在很大程度上得到了证实和扩展。研究结果突出了在牙买加年轻女性中进行健康传播的有希望的机会,重点是自我效能、适应力和积极的文化因素。
