Union Status and Sexual Risk Behavior Among Men in Their 30s
Men in their 30s, especially those who are not married, engage in risky sexual behaviors. Further studies are needed to assess what contributes to behavioral differences by union status and what types of services might help men in this age-group reduce their risk
Levels of Change in Adolescent Sexual Behavior in Three Asian Cities
Considerable change in the romantic and sexual behaviors of Asian young people may be occurring as traditionally Confucian societies modernize and increase outside contacts. This study explores the dimensions and context of this change in three sites at different stages in the process of modernization: Hanoi (early), Shanghai (intermediate), and Taipei (later stage). A survey was conducted of 17,016 males and females aged 15–24 in urban and rural…

Outcome variables, measured at 6-month intervals during the 2-yea…
Dependency in Urban Black Families Following the Birth of an Adolescent's Child
Correlates of change in short-term economic dependency are explored in households of 307 urban black adolescents, approximately half of whom bring babies into the family. Correlates of increased dependency differ with dependency defined as proportion of household members employed as opposed to dependency. The key explanatory variable with both definitions is the adolescent's employment status. Presence of her baby significantly affects an adolesc…
