What Do Teens Know about the Facts of Life?
Amonker, R. G.
Journal of School Health, v50 n9 p527-530 Nov 1980
A survey of teenagers in Missouri assessing their knowledge of contraception, abortion, reproduction, and venereal disease is reported. Results indicate that lack of information rather than incorrect information is the principal problem, and that teenagers are better informed about abortion than about birth control methods or reproduction.
