Journal of Pediatric Health Care -- 2017, v. 31, 3, p. 302-312Summary: Introduction—The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of a youth-centered assessment, the sexual risk event history calendar (SREHC), compared to the Guidelines for Adolescent
Preventive Services (GAPS) assessment, on sexual risk attitudes, intentions, and behaviors.
Methods—The Interaction Model of Client Health Behavior guided this participatory researchbased randomized control trial. Youth participants recruited from university and community clinics in the Midwest were randomized to a healthcare provider visit using either the SREHC or GAPS and completed surveys at baseline, post-intervention, 3, 6, and 12 months.
Results—Participants included 181 youth (15–25 years old) and nine providers. Findings demonstrated youth in the SREHC group reported stronger intentions to use condoms compared to those in the GAPS group. Age and race were also significant predictors of sexual experience.
Discussion—This study highlights the importance of using a youth-centered, systematic approach in assessment of sexual risk behaviors.
