“…The authors point out that, as education continues, especially in the lower income brackets, it reduces the chances of early motherhood and fatherhood. The socioeconomic level has different effects on boys and girls, since income increases the chances of boys engaging in sexual intercourse, while girls have smaller chances [58]…”

“…The presence and participation of the parents reduces the chances of the adolescents initiating sexual activity early, increasing the probability of the first sexual intercourse happening for their own interest, not for the partner’s interests [59]. In addition, the higher the mother's education, the smaller the chance that adolescents will initiate sexual activities early [58]. Moreover, the literature indicates that the family arrangement composed of father and mother is an important and essential predictor of age of first sexual intercourse and risky sexual behavior [32–34].…”

Adolescence is a period of transition between childhood and adulthood. The article aims to study the individual, family and school characteristics of adolescents beginning their sexual lives. The database we used was the 2015 PeNSE (National Adolescent School-based Health Survey) and the methodology was the survival analysis. The results show that boys initiate sexual activity before girls and risky behaviors associated with the use of licit and illicit drugs increase the chance of having early sex. In addition, this work highlights the importance of parental practices in reducing the chances of beginning sexual activity, as well as the presence of school workshops on the risks of pregnancy. It should be noted that intervention strategies need to be differentiated according to gender in order to increase effectiveness.

“…HRB can interrelate with each other and have common antecedents, which contributes to their associated occurrence (Guedes & Lopes, 2010;Mola et al, 2017;Raposo et al, 2017). Nevertheless, these behaviors are usually assessed in isolation (Wang et al, 2012) through elaborate questionnaires, based on adaptations of various instruments, which may compromise quality and the possibility to compare studies (Guedes & Lopes, 2010).…”

Considering the importance of health risk behaviors (HRB) and the need for reliable instruments to evaluate them, this study was designed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the items of the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) in a sample of 902 college students. Convergent validity, criterion, internal consistency, and temporal stability were evaluated. Higher correlations were observed between use of other drugs and use of marijuana (ρ = 0.537), and alcohol consumption and tobacco use (ρ = 0.418). Criterion validity was observed, with significant differences between domain scores according to gender. Adequate internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha = 0.770 for overall scale. Most of the domains (82%) showed intraclass correlation coefficient ≥ 0.75 and 64.1% of the items showed kappa ≥ 0.60. The instrument seems to have indicators of criterion validity, internal consistency and temporal stability with satisfactory levels. We recommend that HRB assessment using YRBS should be performed separately on each domain.

Foram avaliadas validade convergente, critério, consistência interna e estabilidade temporal. Observaramse maiores correlações: uso de outras drogas e uso de maconha (ρ = 0,537), consumo de bebida alcóolica e uso de tabaco (ρ = 0,418). Constatou-se validade de critério, com diferenças significativas entre escores dos domínios segundo o sexo. Consistência interna adequada, alfa de Cronbach = 0,770 para escala geral. A maioria dos domínios (82%) apresentou coeficiente de correlação intraclasse ≥ 0,75 e 64,1% dos itens apresentaram kappa ≥ 0,60. O instrumento parece apresentar indicadores de validade de critério, consistência interna e estabilidade temporal com níveis satisfatórios. Recomenda-se que avaliação dos CRS, por meio do YRBS, seja realizada por domínios separadamente.

This study aims to identify the determinants of alcohol consumption patterns (liquor) in adolescents in Lombok Island, the condition of alcohol abuse that is already at a very alarming level. This research used cross-sectional design with quantitative approach. Sample taken by purposive sampling in juvenile Junior High School (JHS) and Senior High School (SHS) in Lombok Island amounted to 1664 students. Data collected by using questionnaires distributed to respondents. The variables measured as follows: alcohol consumption patterns, gender, age, cigarette consumption pattern, parental education level, parental divorce status, peer influence, social media influence, sexual behavior, conflict with spouses and family conflicts. Data analysis was descriptive and Chi-square with significant level p <0.05 and Odds Ratio (OR) with Confidence Interval (CI) 95%. There was a significant relationship between alcohol consumption (liquor) > 3 liter/week pattern in adolescents in Lombok Island based on gender, age, cigarette consumption pattern, parental education level, parental divorce status, peer influence, social media, sexual behavior, conflict with spouse and conflict with family (p <0.05). This can be concluded that the causality of alcohol consumption patterns (liquor) in adolescents was determined by various factors derived from the environment and internal factors within the adolescent. Thus, it is necessary to do promotive and preventive efforts in minimizing alcohol abuse in adolescents.
