Resumo(s)
This study examined trends in adolescent sexual behaviors
from 2002 to 2014 in Portugal. Data were collected using
self-reported questionnaires from 8th and 10th graders in
classrooms during 2002, 2006, 2010, and 2014. Overall, the
prevalence of sexual intercourse, age of sexual initiation, pill
use, and sexual intercourse under the influence of alcohol or
drugs decreased in Portugal between 2002 and 2014, while
condom use increased. Boys and 10th graders more frequently
reported having ever had sexual intercourse, boys
and 8th graders more frequently reported having had sexual
intercourse under the influence of alcohol or drugs, girls
and 10th graders more frequently reported having had their
first sexual intercourse at 14 years or older (except in 2014,
where boys and girls reported more frequently having initiated
at 12–13 years), and girls and 10th graders reported
more frequently having used condoms and the pill (except
in 2014) at the last sexual intercourse. Eighth graders more
frequently reported having had their first sexual experience
at 12–13 years (except in 2006).
