Abstract
This study examines the premarital sexual attitudes and behavior of black high school girls. An attempt is made to relate family structure, social class, and religious participation to these attitudes and behavior. Analysis of the data supported an hypothesis specifying a relationship between family structure and sexual attitudes and behavior. Social class appears to slightly influence attitudes, but behavior of girls from different social classes is very similar. No relationship was found between religious participation and premarital sexual attitudes and behavior. Of interest are incongruities in expressed attitudes and behavior and a tendency for high religious participants to be as permissive or more so than the girls who are less active in the church.
