DELATORRE, Marina Zanella; DURGANTE, Helen Bedinoto  e  DIAS, Ana Cristina Garcia. Self-concept and contraceptive and sexual practices amongst university students. Rev. SPAGESP [online]. 2018, vol.19, n.1, pp.103-128. ISSN 1677-2970.

The aim of this study was to investigate associations between dimensions of self-concept and contraceptive and sexual practices amongst university youth. Participants were 295 university students, who answered a sociodemographic questionnaire which also contained questions related to contraceptive knowledge and practices, and the Self-Concept Scale (EFA). There were associations between contraceptive use and the ethic moral dimension, as well as preservative, which also were associated with the ethic-moral, social attitude, security and somatic dimensions. Keeping contraceptive conversation with a partner was associated with the ethic-moral and self-control dimensions, whereas the age of sexual initiation was associated with social receptivity. Reinforcement of ethic-moral values and the development of interpersonal skills may be important factors underlying the adherence to contraception amongst university youth.

Palavras-chave : contraception; sexual behaviour; self-concept; university youth.
