Comparison of adolescent sex information sources for black and white males and females in a Northeast Texas community was made from 1964 and 1974 questionnaire data (N = 367 and 432 respectively). A general change from parents to friends as the stated sources of major sex information was noted over the decade. While parents are still the preferred source of sex information for most of these adolescents, friends as a preferred source increased in frequency especially for males. Overall, both stated and preferred sex information sources showed more significant changes for males than females.
利用1964年和1974年的问卷调查数据（样本量分别为367和432），对得克萨斯州东北部一个社区的黑人和白人青少年男性及女性的性信息来源进行了比较。在这十年间，主要性信息来源从父母转变为朋友的总体趋势明显。虽然父母仍是这些青少年中大多数人性信息的首选来源，但朋友作为首选来源的频率有所增加，尤其是在男性中。总体而言，无论是提及的还是首选的性信息来源，男性的变化都比女性更为显著。
