  • Title: Sexuality and quality of life among young people.
    Author: McCabe MP, Cummins RA.
    Journal: Adolescence; 1998; 33(132):761-73. PubMed ID: 9886004.
    Abstract:
    Associations between quality of life and attitudes toward, and experience of, sexual activities during adolescence were investigated in a sample of 240 Australian university students. Sexuality was explored using the Sexual Knowledge, Experience and Needs Scale (SexKen). Both objective and subjective quality of life were evaluated in seven domains using the Comprehensive Quality of Life Scale (ComQol). The findings demonstrated the importance of relationships and sexual experience to satisfaction with life. The results are discussed in terms of the significance of sexuality for general well-being during adolescence.
