Studies on Sexuality and Sex Education addressing parents' and teenagers' attitudes towards sex and sex education curricula:

Two studies are currently being conducted at the Institute of Medicine, Psychology, and Religion.

The first investigates the experiences and reactions of parents and children to sex education in school, especially with reference to the home. To participate in this study about experiences and reactions to sex education, there is a short (qualitative) survey you may complete, and a longer (quantitative) questionnaire you may also download and complete.
