Predicting the Timing of First Sexual Intercourse for At-Risk Adolescent Males.
Capaldi, Deborah M.; And Others
Child Development, v67 n2 p344-59 Apr 1996
Event history analysis, spanning grades 7 through 12, was used to test a developmental model of the timing of first sexual intercourse among boys at risk for delinquency. As predicted, antisocial/delinquent behavior and substance use along with early physical maturity and parental transitions predicted early onset of sexual intercourse. Anxiety was related to delay of first intercourse. (HTH)
