For heterosexual Japanese women in their early 20s, it is important to maintain good sexual health, develop intimate relationships with a partner, and go through the process of having a family. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of mother-daughter relationships among Japanese female university students and their associations with students' sexual risk-coping consciousness. We conducted a cross-sectional study using anonymous self-administered questionnaires. Participants were 329 female university students in their junior and senior years. The mother-daughter relationships of the study respondents were divided into the following three clusters: controlled group, close group, and independent group. The close and independent groups often consulted their mothers about sexual matters and, also, tended to be highly capable of actively expressing their opinions and cooperating with their partner in a sexual setting. In contrast, the controlled group revealed a significantly lower percentages of consulting their mothers on sexual matters and scored lower sexual risk-coping consciousness subscale scores. The controlled group may suffer a negative impact of the relationship with their controlling mothers as they try to build a good, trusting relationship with others. The characteristics of mother-daughter relationships may be associated with daughters' sexual risk-coping consciousness.
对于 20 多岁的异性恋日本女性来说，保持良好的性健康、与伴侣建立亲密关系以及经历组建家庭的过程非常重要。本研究旨在确定日本女大学生母女关系的特征及其与学生性行为风险应对意识的关系。我们采用横断面研究方法，使用匿名自填式问卷进行调查。研究对象为 329 名大学三、四年级的女大学生。研究对象的母女关系分为控制型、亲密型和独立型三组。亲密型和独立型组的女大学生经常与母亲讨论性问题，并且在性方面能够积极主动地表达自己的意见并与伴侣合作。相比之下，控制型组的女大学生在性问题上与母亲的咨询较少，性行为风险应对意识量表的得分也较低。控制型组可能会受到与控制欲强的母亲关系的负面影响，因为她们试图与他人建立良好、信任的关系。母女关系的特征可能与女儿的性行为风险应对意识有关。
