Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine condom use self-efficacy, the ability to execute safer sexual behavior, in the pregnant adolescent population. In order to determine what may drive condom use self-efficacy the relationships between a participants prior related behavior in condom use, perceived barriers to condom use, perceived self-efficacy in condom use and how they impact commitment to use condoms were explored in order to gain an understanding of what drives condom use self-efficacy in this population. Since many studies related to risky sexual behavior have already been performed on the non-pregnant adolescent population it is important to compare the study results from both the non-pregnant and pregnant adolescent populations. This knowledge could lead to an understanding of any differences in these two populations; and if so how these differences may drive change in interventions in the future for pregnant adolescents that would decrease their risky sexual behavior. The relationships described above were hypothesized and measured based on the Health Promotion Model (HPM), a Nursing model, which posits that these relationships could collectively influence health behavior, which in this study would ultimately be condom use. A mediation model was also tested to explore whether perceived self-efficacy in condom use mediates prior related behavior and commitment to use condoms in the pregnant adolescent population. A descriptive correlational design was used to examine the other hypothesized relationships. This included testing of the commitment to use condoms and how the determinants of prior related behavior with condom use, perceived self-efficacy in condom use, and perceived barriers of action to condom use affected that commitment. A convenience sample of 40 pregnant adolescents of whom were 20 weeks or greater in their pregnancy and were between the ages of 18 and 24 years old were recruited. The PI developed a demographic survey and this survey along with the Condom Use Self-Efficacy Scale (CUSES) was administered to these participants to collect the data for this exploratory study. Study results indicated that, in opposition to previous studies performed on non-pregnant adolescents, in the pregnant adolescent population there were no significant relationships between; 1) Commitment to use condoms and prior related behavior with condom use; 2) Perceived self-efficacy in condom use; and 3) Perceived barriers of action to condom use. Another important concept found was that contrary to the non-pregnant adolescent population, the pregnant adolescent population rated themselves very highly in condom use self-efficacy but did not use condoms nor plan to use condoms in the future. Given the STD rates were found to be very high in pregnant adolescents, putting both the mother and fetus at very high risk for a multitude of complications, there are opportunities for improvement in their health care. This study provides very valuable information that indicates the potential need for development and use of alternate education that meets the specific needs of pregnant adolescents. Replication of this study in a larger group, with multiple geographic settings, possible testing of other related theoretical constructs, and additional demographic information may also provide further insight into the special needs of this vulnerable population and improve generalizeability of these study results.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of the psychological construct of self-efficacy is widely acknowledged as one of the most important developments in the history of psychology. Today, it is simply not possible to explain phenomena such as human motivation, learning, self-regulation, and accomplishment without discussing the role played by self-efficacy beliefs. In this, the fifth volume of our series on adolescence and education, we focus on the self-efficacy beliefs of adolescents. We are proud and fortunate to be able to bring together the most prominent voices in the study of self-efficacy, including that of the Father of Social Cognitive Theory and of self-efficacy, Professor Albert Bandura. It is our hope, and our expectation, that this volume will become required reading for all students and scholars in the areas of adolescence and of motivation and, of course, for all who play a pivotal role in the education and care of youth.

Book excerpt: Over one million U.S. teenagers become pregnant each year. In addition to pregnancy risk, adolescents are at risk for a variety of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) including AIDS. Little is known regarding the multivariate contributions to adolescent sexual behavior. The following study was designed to test a Developmental Social-Learning Model of adolescent sexual behavior. According to this model, adolescent sexual behavior is a function of maturation, socio-demographic factors, and the social-learning influences of parents, school, media, and peers. These variables in turn impact the knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy, social skills and drug use of the developing adolescent. Method. The Developmental Social-Learning Model of adolescent sexual behavior was tested in a sample of 404 Anglo and Latino adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17. Data were collected by a face-to-face interview and a videotaped role-play procedure assessing relevant social skills. Hierarchical regression analysis was calculated to assess the relative contribution of variable blocks to the variation in adolescent sexual activity. Hierarchical analyses were also calculated separately for males, females, Anglos, and Latinos. Lastly, hierarchical equations were calculated to assess the utility of the model in explaining the condom behavior of coitally active adolescents. Results. Each of the nine variables blocks contributed significantly to the hierarchical equation, accounting for a total of 58% of the variance in adolescent sexual activity. When calculated differentially for males, females, Anglos, and Latinos, the model remained highly significant for all groups. The hierarchical models of condom use accounted for 28% of the variance in condom use in the first relationship and 49% of the variance in condom use in the last six months. Conclusions. The significant contributions of the variable blocks to the variation in adolescent sexual activity supports the validity of the Developmental Social-Learning Model. Calculations of separate models for males, females, Anglos, and Latinos highlight several important distinctions between these groups. Finally, the application of the model to the condom behavior of coitally active adolescents provides a more thorough understanding of condom behavior and targets specific areas for future interventions.

Download or read book The Effects of Symbolic Modeling on Self-efficacy Beliefs to Negotiate Condom Use Among College-aged Women written by Diane Rachel Lake and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AIDS is a serious health threat to college-aged people, due to their risky sexual behavior. To date, there remains no cure for AIDS, thus the only available weapon against the disease is education. Studies show that college students have knowledge and awareness of AIDS, but still do not practice safer sex by using condoms. This study tests the effects of symbolic modeling, a component of self-efficacy theory, on college-aged women's beliefs of self-efficacy that they can negotiate condom use with their partners. The study consists of an experiment comparing two different types of symbolic modeling, verbal and behavioral, and testing for the effectiveness of each in raising participants' levels of self-efficacy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latina/os are currently the largest minority population in the United States. They are also one of the fastest growing. Yet, we have very limited research and understanding of their sexualities. Instead, stereotypical images flourish even though scholars have challenged the validity and narrowness of these images and the lack of attention to the larger social context. Gathering the latest empirical work in the social and behavioral sciences, this reader offers us a critical lens through which to understand these images and the social context framing Latina/os and their sexualities. Situated at the juncture of Latina/o studies and sexualities studies, Latina/o Sexualities provides a single resource that addresses the current state of knowledge from a multidisciplinary perspective. Contributors synthesize and critique the literature and carve a separate space where issues of Latina/o sexualities can be explored given the limitations of prevalent research models. This work compels the current wave in sexuality studies to be more inclusive of ethnic minorities and sets an agenda that policy makers and researchers will find invaluable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Adolescence breaks new ground as an important central resource for the study of adolescence. Comprehensive in breath and textbook in depth, the Encyclopedia of Adolescence – with entries presented in easy-to-access A to Z format – serves as a reference repository of knowledge in the field as well as a frequently updated conduit of new knowledge long before such information trickles down from research to standard textbooks. By making full use of Springer’s print and online flexibility, the Encyclopedia is at the forefront of efforts to advance the field by pushing and creating new boundaries and areas of study that further our understanding of adolescents and their place in society. Substantively, the Encyclopedia draws from four major areas of research relating to adolescence. The first broad area includes research relating to "Self, Identity and Development in Adolescence". This area covers research relating to identity, from early adolescence through emerging adulthood; basic aspects of development (e.g., biological, cognitive, social); and foundational developmental theories. In addition, this area focuses on various types of identity: gender, sexual, civic, moral, political, racial, spiritual, religious, and so forth. The second broad area centers on "Adolescents’ Social and Personal Relationships". This area of research examines the nature and influence of a variety of important relationships, including family, peer, friends, sexual and romantic as well as significant nonparental adults. The third area examines "Adolescents in Social Institutions". This area of research centers on the influence and nature of important institutions that serve as the socializing contexts for adolescents. These major institutions include schools, religious groups, justice systems, medical fields, cultural contexts, media, legal systems, economic structures, and youth organizations. "Adolescent Mental Health" constitutes the last major area of research. This broad area of research focuses on the wide variety of human thoughts, actions, and behaviors relating to mental health, from psychopathology to thriving. Major topic examples include deviance, violence, crime, pathology (DSM), normalcy, risk, victimization, disabilities, flow, and positive youth development.
