摘要
目的 了解初中生家长对子女进行性健康教育的态度和相关影响因素.方法 本研究为多中心横断面流行病学调查研究,采用多阶段非随机整群抽样的方法,在全国7个地理大区共选取2 895位初中生家长进行调查.结果 被调查对象中,有861名父亲(85.8%)和1 560名的母亲(90.6%)认为父母应该对子女进行性健康教育.458名父亲(54.1%)和789名母亲(51.6%)认为13~15岁是进行相关教育的最佳时期.多因素Logistic回归模型分析结果显示,女孩的家长更愿意对孩子进行性健康教育(OR=1.35,95%CI:1.04~1.75),孩子的年级越高,家长对其进行性健康教育的态度越消极(x2=13.238,P<0.01);女性家长更乐意对子女开展性健康教育(OR=1.47,95%CI:1.12~1.93),家长对孩子进行性健康教育的意愿随着家长教育程度的升高而升高(x2=31.583,P<0.01).职业为工人/农民的家长,对孩子进行性健康教育的态度相对较消极(OR=0.58,95%CI:0.36~0.93).此外,相对于年收入较低的家长,收入高的家长更愿意对子女开展性健康教育(x2=17.055,p<0.01).结论 应通过多渠道有针对性的对初中生家长开展关于青少年性健康教育方面的宣传培训,提高我国青少年学生性健康教育的质量和水平,从而降低相关疾病的发病率.
Objective To investigate the attitude of teenager's parents toward sexual health communication and its related factors in China.Methods A multi-centre cross-sectional study was conducted based on multistage non-randomized cluster sampling.A total of 2 895 teenager's parents participated in the survey from 7 geographic regions of China.Results Of all the participants,861 fathers (85.8%) and 1 560 mothers (90.6%) supported that parent-teen sexual health communication is necessary; 458 fathers (54.1%) and 789 mothers (51.6%) chose child's age between 13 and 15 years as the best period for the communication.The results of multiple logistic regression showed that parents of girls were more willing to undertake sexual health education (OR=1.35,95%CI:1.04-1.75),and that with the grade in school increasing,parents were less willing to do the communication (x2=13.238,P〈0.01).Compared to fathers,mothers were more willing to undertake sexual health education (OR=1.47,95%CI:1.12-1.93).Parents with higher education levels had positive attitude toward sexual health communication with children (x2=31.583,P〈0.01).Parents who were workers/farmers also had passive attitude toward sexual health education (OR=0.58,95%CI:0.36-0.93).In addition,parents with a higher individual annual income were more positive to communicate with their children about sexual health (x2=17.055,P〈0.01).Conclusions More effective programs pertaining to parent-teen sexual health communication should be developed through different channels for more publicity and improvement in the sexual health education among young adolescents in China,so as to decrease the incidence of sexually transmitted disease.
