To evaluate a model of social contextual influences on risk for adolescent pregnancy, 368 target adolescents (52% female, 48% male) and their mothers, fathers, and closest age siblings were assessed 6 times over a 7-year period beginning when the target adolescents were in 7th grade. Two pathways were found to increase risk for involvement in a pregnancy by late adolescence. Middle adolescent risk-taking behavior mediated the influence of early adolescent parental warmth-involvement and deviant-peer affiliations on involvement in a pregnancy by 12th grade. Also, early adolescent academic competence mediated the relationship between parental warmth-involvement and involvement in a pregnancy by 12th grade. Theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.
为了评估社会环境对青少年怀孕风险的影响模型，从目标青少年七年级开始，在7年时间里对368名目标青少年（52%为女性，48%为男性）及其母亲、父亲和年龄最相近的兄弟姐妹进行了6次评估。研究发现了两条在青春期后期增加怀孕风险的途径。青少年中期的冒险行为介导了青少年早期父母温暖参与和不良同伴关系对12年级时怀孕的影响。此外，青少年早期的学业能力介导了父母温暖参与和12年级时怀孕之间的关系。文中讨论了研究结果的理论和实际意义。
