ABSTRACT
Knowledge of sexual matters is one of several key factors capable of influencing teenage reproductive behavior. This article reports the results of initial and followup surveys designed to test such knowledge among adolescent students in St. Kitts and Nevis before and after they received a family life/sex education course in the mid-1980s. This course provided information about fundamentals of human reproduction and contraception, human growth and development, emotional development, and issues of adolescent sexuality. (AU)
