Sexual Activity and Problem Behaviors among Black, Urban Adolescents.
Ensminger, Margaret E.
Child Development, v61 n6 p2032-46 Dec 1990
Studied sexual activity, substance use, and assault among Black children from first grade through age 17. Adolescents with multiple problems differed from others in behavior and parental supervision. Males who only engaged in sexual activity or who had no problems were similar; but females in the same categories differed in family origins. (BC)
