Abstract

 We undertook a study of the effect of peer-group education on the level of sexual knowledge and awareness in a group of high school students. The subjects were from Okinawa prefecture, and assessment was by completion of a questionnaire concerning both basic knowledge of sexually transmitted diseases (STD) and methods of contraception, and general sexual awareness. This was administered before and after a period of three peer-education sessions, in which university students taught the topics and discussed them with the students.

 Levels of factual knowledge before the education sessions were unsatisfactorily low. However male students significantly increased their mean scores on questions relating to sexual responsibility, although female students showed no change. The number of students in both groups who responded that men and women should talk more openly about sexuality, when asked about means of avoiding unwanted pregnancies, were also significantly higher.

 Student impressions of peer education were that 1) it was a good opportunity to think about sexuality, 2) they could talk more frankly with their university student teachers because they were close in age, and 3) they would like further such opportunities.

 We concluded that discussion within the same generation is an effective means of conveying correct sexual information, and thus helps them to view sexuality in positive and constructive ways.
