Improving the sexual and reproductive health of adolescents remains a public health priority. Effective communication between parents and adolescents regarding sexual health and relationships is important and could influence adolescents to adopt safer sexual behaviors. However, several barriers can impede this communication in the UK population. The aim of the review is to explore barriers and facilitators, as well as wider determinants of parent-adolescent communication (PAC) on sexual health and relationships. The review will explore possible interventions aimed at promoting PAC on sexual health and relationships.
The review will focus on exploring barriers and facilitators of PAC on sexual health and relationships in the United Kingdom. This study will synthesize qualitative literature to understand the significance of parent-adolescent sexual and reproductive health communication, the challenges and facilitators to effective communication in the United Kingdom. Using a detailed predetermined search strategy, the study will search for relevant studies from CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, EMBASE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and gray literature on Google Scholar. The Critical Appraisal Skills Program checklist will appraise the included studies' methodological quality. A thematic synthesis approach will be used to synthesize data from included studies.
Findings from the systematic review are expected to give information on the barriers and facilitators of PAC on sexual health and relationships which will further optimize interventions to improve this type of communication and guide future research in understanding this area.
The review has been registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews CRD (PROSPERO) (CRD42022351697).
改善青少年的性健康和生殖健康仍是公共卫生领域的一项优先任务。父母与青少年之间就性健康和恋爱关系进行有效沟通非常重要，这可能会促使青少年采取更安全的性行为。然而，在英国人群中，有几个障碍会阻碍这种沟通。本综述的目的是探讨阻碍因素和促进因素，以及父母与青少年就性健康和恋爱关系进行沟通（PAC）的更广泛决定因素。该综述将探索旨在促进关于性健康和恋爱关系的PAC的可能干预措施。
该综述将聚焦于探索英国PAC在性健康和恋爱关系方面的阻碍因素和促进因素。本研究将综合定性文献，以了解父母与青少年性健康和生殖健康沟通的重要性、在英国有效沟通的挑战和促进因素。使用详细的预定检索策略，该研究将在CINAHL、MEDLINE、PsycINFO、EMBASE、SCOPUS、科学网以及谷歌学术上的灰色文献中搜索相关研究。批判性评估技能计划清单将评估纳入研究的方法学质量。将采用主题综合法对纳入研究的数据进行综合分析。
系统综述的结果预计将提供有关PAC在性健康和恋爱关系方面阻碍因素和促进因素的信息，这将进一步优化干预措施以改善此类沟通，并指导该领域未来的研究。
