Abstract

This second evaluation of an abstinence-only adolescent pregnancy prevention program included 528 children. None of the desired changes in attitudes or behavior occurred for the sample as a whole or for the subgroup who were virgins. Taken in context with a lack of satisfactory results from other abstinence-only programs the federal policy of relying exclusively on abstinence-only programs is called into question. (authors)
