摘要
This quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of a school-based sexual health education program among intervention students (n=33) compared with control students (n=33). The data were collected from self-administered questionnaires and analyzed by using paired t-test and independence t-test. The results showed that after intervention the intervention group had significant difference in their knowledge and attitude, while the control group had no significant. Thus, school staff, health personnel, and relevant agencies should consider adopting this approach to protect adolescent students from unsafe sexual behavior. (C) 2013 The Authors.
