adolescents? wellbeing. While more emphasis has been on
negative outcomes, there are broad positive implications for
physical health, mental health, intimate relationships, and
identity development. To fully understand the impact, we need to
understand both. In addition, the impact of sexual behavior is not
universal, but may differ based on individuals?
demographic, relational, contextual, and attitudinal factors.
This volume provides a framework for understanding the complex role
of sexual behavior in adolescents? lives, with a specific
focus on the roles of sexual minority status, internet-based sexual
experiences, relationship context, and sexual learning through
formal and informal sex education in determining the outcomes of
sexual behavior. It provides:
A nuanced, multidimensional understanding of the role of sexual
behavior in shaping adolescents? development and
well-being
Important directions for future research
Recommendations for sexuality education, prevention, and
intervention programs.

number of individual, relational, and contextual factors.

minority than for heterosexual youth, including distinct physical,
psychological and emotional, and identity outcomes.

Teens 37

associated with fewer negative intrapersonal and interpersonal
health outcomes than suggested by the often pathologized
representation in the media.

Relationships: Fluidity, Meaning(s), and Implications for Young
Adults? Well-Being 53
Wendy D. Manning, Monica A. Longmore, Jennifer Copp, Peggy C.

experience relatively few negative long-term outcomes.
5. Sexual Learning, Sexual Experience, and Healthy Adolescent
Sex 71

Adolescents learn to become sexually functional and healthy
through a range of informal and formal sex education experiences,
and sexual learning could be expanded to better support healthy
sexual functioning.

Outcomes of Sexual Health 87
Eva S. Lefkowitz, Sara A. Vasilenko
Adolescent sexual behavior is linked to a broad array of
positive and negative outcomes, and future research with new
