Unprotected Sex and Its Association with Other Risky Behaviours Among European Students: A Multinational Study

Unprotected sex in the past year and substance use are strongly associated amid 16-year-old students in Europe. The prevalence of risky sexual behaviours across European countries does not follow a clear geographical pattern, suggesting that simple macro-level factors, such as broad regional or cultural groupings, may only partially explain prevalence differences.

Abstract

Unprotected sex in the past year and substance use are strongly associated amid 16-year-old students in Europe. The prevalence of risky sexual behaviours across European countries does not follow a clear geographical pattern, suggesting that simple macro-level factors, such as broad regional or cultural groupings, may only partially explain prevalence differences.
