Brief Summary:
The goal of this efficacy study is to evaluate how different web-based resources affect parents' and children's sexual health knowledge; attitudes, efficacy, intentions, and behaviors about parent-adolescent communication; attitudes about media messages; and media message deconstruction skills. Parent consumer satisfaction with the resources will also be assessed.
Detailed Description:
While the majority of the students will receive sexual education at least once between seventh and twelfth grade, the content that they will receive varies greatly. Thus, adolescents turn to other sources for information about sex including their parents and the media. However, many parents face challenges in being prepared to discuss sex with their adolescent child. While over eighty percent of parents are talking with their children ages 10-18 about issues related to sex, far fewer (60%) discuss more difficult sexual topics such as birth control. These findings suggest that there is a need for evidence-based resources that teach parents the skills needed to have effective conversations with their adolescent children about sexual health topics and media messages that promote early and risky sex.
