The aim of this study was to survey the needs of sexual education, sexual knowledge and its source on students at senior high night schools in Taoyuan county, so a sexual education program could then be designed. From September-October, 2005, 533 students participated in this study with a response rate of 94.7%. The findings were: 1. How to make and get along with boy or girl friends was the most requested topic of sexual education. 2. Friends or classmates were the major source for students to find out how to make and get along with boy or girl friends. Students mainly learned about pregnancy, contraceptive methods, and sexually transmitted disease from their teachers and schools. 3. For whom to get help for sexual issues, friends, classmates or parents were the major resource. 4. 40.3% of the students had previous sexual experience. 5. The correct proportion of sexual knowledge was 53.7%. 6. The factors associated with the correctness of sexual knowledge were: gender (female students tended to have a higher accuracy rate than male students), academic score (students with a higher academic score tended to have a higher accuracy rate than those with a worse academic score), and sexual experience (students who had previous sexual experience tended to have a higher accuracy rate than those who did not). Students at senior high night schools still lacked sexual knowledge, especially for males and students who were not doing well in academically. Education programs about how to make or get along with friends and where to get help for sexual issues should be enforced. |
