Abstract | Purpose: To examine if attitudes toward premarital sex, beliefs about peer influence, and family communication about sexual relationships differ by sexual experience status. Methods: Data were collected from a randomly selected ethnically diverse youth sample (N = 1,318) residing in two Midwestern cities. The primary method used in data analysis was logistic regression. Results: More sexually experienced youth believed that many of their friends were already sexually active, and reported talking with their parents about STD prevention than sexually inexperienced youth. However, more sexually inexperienced youth reported cautious premarital attitudes than did experienced youth. Conclusion: Attitudes and beliefs regarding adolescent sexual activity differ based on sexual experience status. Implications for health promotion practice are being discussed. (Contains 3 tables.)
