The purpose of the study is to develop a sexuality education instructional program and a multi-evaluation inventory for eighth graders. The heterosexual relationship-based sexuality education instructional program is developed through the integration of several current theoretical frameworks. The instructional model is based on IVAC approach and draws from the theory of behavioral change. The goal of the instructional program is to determine if the instructional model is effective in promoting students' sexual knowledge, sexual attitude, postponing sexual behavior involvement skills, self efficiency, peer social support and postponing sexual behavioral intention. The subject population investigated in this project consists of two classes of eighth grade students. In the experimental design, six-unit, twelve-hour instruction program, Sex Can Wait, is developed and multi-evaluation instrument, pretest and posttest inventories are administered to eighth graders both in treatment and comparison groups. Four health educators will co-teach the experimental group and develop a multi-evaluation inventory to collect both qualitative and quantitative data. The results showed that the scores of the students' sexual knowledge, sexual attitude, postponing sexual behavior involvement skills, self-efficacy and peer social support of the experimental groups were significantly higher than those control groups after the intervention. The students of the experimental groups reported that they enjoyed the activities and learned a lot from the intervention courses. |
