Abstract
The purpose of this research study was to explore the relationship between adult demographics and recommendations for sex education curriculum components/modules. This quantitative exploratory survey research study investigated the sex education curriculum components/modules recommendations from 30 men and women. This study employed a non-probability convenience sampling method. There were significant chi-square associations found between gender and condom use; female birth control; types of romantic and sexual relationships; sexual self-esteem and well-being regarding sex; and LGBTQ topics. Participants who stated that sex education should be taught in school also provided recommendations on the components/modules they felt ought to be included in the curriculum. The findings from this study suggest that there is a need for sex education curriculum creators to address the sex education recommendations of adults from various demographic backgrounds. Implications for social work practice and policy are discussed.
