Interventions6
  • Given that evidence-based interventions result in lower rates of sexual recidivism ( 4-7 ), many states require AISB to receive psychological treatment for their illegal sexual behavior ( 7 ). (frontiersin.org)

Adults15
  • Adolescents adjudicated for illegal sexual behavior (AISB) are subjected to the same Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA) policies as adults with sexual offense histories despite current research documenting their relatively low likelihood of recidivism. (frontiersin.org)
  • However, the law treats juveniles who engage in illegal sexual behavior as adults who have sexually offended-meaning that juveniles (like adults) are subject to sex offense registry and notification laws that can impact the rest of their lives. (frontiersin.org)
  • Adolescents are often subjected to the same Sex Offender Registration Notification Act (SORNA) requirements as adults, which includes placing AISB on public sex offense registries and enforcing community notification and residency restriction policies. (frontiersin.org)

Adolescence4
  • Because adolescence represents a life stage of increasing psychosocial independence, but one of limited legal and social rights (for those who have not reached the legal age of adulthood where they reside), adolescent health exists at the intersection of many forces often outside of the control of individual young people. (wikipedia.org)
  • Adolescence is a period of rapid change in physical, psychological, emotional, and cognitive development, during which adolescents become more interested in sexual behaviors. (jmir.org)

  • In addition to intervention on young people's knowledge around the risks of health-related behaviors, it is crucial to acknowledge that adolescents under the legal age of majority are often occupying an idiosyncratic legal, economic, and social state, where their rights to access confidential medical services, or to consent to preventative medical care is highly dependent on the laws and practices of where they reside. (wikipedia.org)
  • Preliminary research indicates that giving young women access to the Seventeen Days film leads to better knowledge about the risks associated with different sexual behaviors and a stronger sense that they can carry out safer behaviors themselves. (cmu.edu)
Trajectories4
  • A performance-based measure of peer influence susceptibility was examined as a moderator of the longitudinal association between peer norms and trajectories of adolescents' number of sexual intercourse partners. (ed.gov)
  • Susceptibility was examined as a moderator of the longitudinal association between perceptions of popular peers' number of sexual intercourse partners and trajectories of adolescents' own numbers of partners. (ed.gov)
