Adolescent sexual intercourse in schools is a common phenomenon.
This study analysed the prevalence and contributing factors of sexual intercourse among adolescents attending school in Guinea.
This study was conducted in Guinea (Conakry).
This was an analysis of the secondary data from a survey of adolescents in secondary schools in Guinea. A sex-stratified logistic regression analysis was performed. Adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and its 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were reported. The significance level was set at 0.05.
The overall prevalence of sexual intercourse among adolescents of school-age in Guinea was 35.2%. The sexual intercourse prevalence rate was 42.4% (95% CI: 40.4-44.4) among boys and 32.7% (95% CI: 31.6-33.9) among girls. High school (girls AOR: 1.64; 95% CI: 1.43-1.88 and boys AOR: 1.35; 95% CI: 1.07-1.69), Christian and other (boys AOR: 1.58; 95% CI: 1.22-2.06 and girls AOR: 1.49; 95% CI: 1.27-1.73), having a partner (boys AOR: 7.03; 95% CI: 5.61-6.80 and girls AOR: 6.29; 95% CI: 5.44-7.28), knowledge of family planning (boys AOR: 2.25; 95% CI: 1.83-2.75 and girls AOR: 1.67; 95% CI: 1.47-1.89) and age (boys AOR: 1.50; 95% CI: 1.38-1.63 and girls AOR: 1.74; 95% CI: 1.65-1.84) were the most important contributing factors of sexual intercourse.
Future programmes targeting adolescents should include public health interventions that address these factors related to sexual intercourse to reduce early sexuality in schools.
This study will help policymakers make decisions about reducing sexual intercourse among school-attending adolescents.
学校中的青少年性行为是一种常见现象。
本研究分析了几内亚在校青少年性行为的患病率及影响因素。
本研究在几内亚(科纳克里)开展。
这是一项对几内亚中学青少年调查的二手数据分析。进行了按性别分层的逻辑回归分析。报告了调整后的优势比(AOR)及其95%置信区间(CI)。显著性水平设定为0.05。
几内亚学龄青少年性行为的总体患病率为35.2%。男孩的性行为患病率为42.4%(95%CI:40.4 - 44.4),女孩为32.7%(95%CI:31.6 - 33.9)。高中(女孩AOR:1.64;95%CI:1.43 - 1.88,男孩AOR:1.35;95%CI:1.07 - 1.69)、基督教徒及其他(男孩AOR:1.58;95%CI:1.22 - 2.06,女孩AOR:1.49;95%CI:1.27 - 1.73)有伴侣(男孩AOR:7.03;95%CI:5.61 - 6.80,女孩AOR:6.29;95%CI:5.44 - 7.28)、计划生育知识(男孩AOR:2.25;95%CI:1.83 - 2.75,女孩AOR:1.67;95%CI:1.47 - 1.89)以及年龄(男孩AOR:1.50;95%CI:1.38 - 1.63,女孩AOR:1.74;95%CI:1.65 - 1.84)是性行为最重要的影响因素。
未来针对青少年的项目应包括解决这些与性行为相关因素的公共卫生干预措施,以减少学校中的过早性行为。
本研究将帮助政策制定者就减少在校青少年性行为做出决策。
