Abstract
The effects of the SOMOS Sexual Education Programme on attitude s towards sexuality in general and towards masturbation in particular, as well as the possible impact of that programme on the sexual experiences of pupils are studied. The investigation takes a sample of 123 adolescents enrolled in the 3rd year of Compulsory Secondary Education, aged between 13 and 17 years old. A design of repeated pre-test/post-test measurements was used with three experimental groups (71 students) and two control groups (52 students). To do so, the evaluation instrument was administered before and after the educational intervention (12 sessions). The results of T tests for related samples confirmed that the programme favours the development of positive attitudes towards sexuality, as well as a significant reduction in negative attitudes towards masturbation. Moreover, it was noted that the sexual experience of the students increased in a progressive way regardless of the group to which they belonged.
