“Dude, I’m Seventeen … It’s Okay Not to Have Sex by This Age”

Using data from the Fifth National Survey of Australian Secondary Students and Sexual Health (n = 783), this study found, in general, students had positive feelings about not having sex.

‘It was as useful as a chocolate kettle’

In the second Australian survey of 1749 same‐sex‐attracted youth…
Transgender people and the amendment of formal documentation
In an online survey of transgender people conducted in Australia and New Zealand, half the respondents (50.6%) reported having made attempts to amend formal documentation to reflect their current gender identity, and that this was crucial to their sense of personal and identity recognition, as well as an affirmation of citizenship. Experiences and outcomes varied, even within the same organisation, leading to different degrees of difficulty and f…
Smarter Reform
Proposals to improve early care and education (ECE) are often based on narrow conceptions of the value, benefits, and appropriate structure of services. The result is an increasing number of initiatives that focus only on a single aspect of the system (e.g., preschool for poor children) and assume this limited intervention can produce large results. This paper argues that to realize ECE's potential to benefit children, families, and the nation's …
