摘要

本研究之目的在透過大规模的調查了解青少年與其主要照顧者的性溝通現況。研究對象以九十三學年度彰化縣所有國中學生與國小高年級學生及其主要照顧者為母群體，選取國中三個年級與國小的五、六年級學生及其主要照顧者，和除無效問卷，配對資料共1064筆，計受試者共為2128人。研究工具包括主要照顧者卷及學生卷；問卷內容共分為基本資料、性溝通態度及性議題討論經驗與溝通方式三大部分。研究所得之結果發現：1．當主要照顧者為母親，青少年的討論經驗較佳。2．在青少年的性溝通態度方面，大部分認為「主要照顧者不懂，沒辦法討論」，而主要照顧者則是認為「討論性會增加其接觸性的機會」。3．在性議題討論經驗上，大部分仍是以「沒有討論過」為多。4．「色情媒體（A片）」、「網路交友」及「交易性行為」等，都是溝通方式較差的項目。5．青少年性溝通態度、性議題討論經驗與溝通方式會受到主要照顧者性溝通態度、性議題討論經驗與溝通方式的影響。建議應增進主要照顧者的性溝通能力，強化家庭性教育與學校性教育並重的觀念，並强調生活中機會教育的重要性。

This study aims to understand the communication practices of sex-related issues between caregivers and adolescents. The accessible population of this study is elementary and junior high school students and their caregivers in Changhua County, Taiwan, in the academic year of 2004. Study participants consisting of K-5 to K-9 students and their caregivers were selected using cluster sampling method. A complete data of 2,128 subjects and 1,064 matched data were utilized for data analysis.
Research instruments used in this study were a structured questionnaire for caregivers and a structured questionnaire for student participants. Both questionnaires comprise three parts: background information, attitudes toward sex-related issue communication practices, and discussion experiences and communication modes of sex-related issues. Principle findings were: (1) The adolescents had better discussion experiences when their caregivers were mothers. (2) In the aspect of attitudes toward sex-related issue communication practices, most adolescents thought that their caregivers did not have the ability to discuss sex-related issues with them. However, most caregivers believed that an increased occasion of discussing sex-related issues would promote adolescents' sexual behaviors. (3) Most participants, including students and their caregivers, indicated that they have never had the experiences of discussing sex-related issues with each other before. (4) Pornography, online dating, and commercial sex practices were considered the least ideal communication modes of sex-related issues. (5) The caregivers' regarding attitudes toward sex-related issue communication practices and discussion experiences and communication modes of sex-related issues will influence their children's. Several recommendations are proposed based on the results of the study. (1) Caregivers' ability to communicate with respect to sex-related issues should be enhanced. (2) The concept that sexual education implemented in family is as important as it is in school should be reinforced. (3) The importance of educating children at an opportune moment should be highlighted.
