ROBLES-MONTIJO, SILVIA SUSANA; GUEVARA-BENITEZ, YOLANDA e PEREZ-BAUTISTA, YUMA YOALY. Risk Factors for the Sexual Health of Young Deaf: Evaluation with a Computed Questionnaire. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.1, pp.27-45. Epub 27-Maio-2021. ISSN 0121-5469. https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v29n2.77173.
The objective of the study was to analyze a set of risk factors for the sexual health of young Mexicans with hearing disabilities. We used a computerized questionnaire with instruments adapted and validated to the deaf population. In 112 young people with an average age of 19.7, we applied the following instruments: sexual communication with parents, parental support and supervision, knowledge about sexually transmitted infections and condom use, sexual practices and sexual abuse. We identified a pattern of sexual risk in sexually active young people, with important proportions that have experienced sexual abuse. Low levels were found in both communication and parental supervision, as well as in knowledge tests. Communication with parents was related to the use of condoms and it was greater in those subjects who have not experienced sexual abuse. In men without sexual experience, the parental variables were associated with both knowledge tests.
