• Resumen

  • The authors argue that the development of alternative outcome measures to improve pregnancy prevention programming in younger adolescents in America will require curiosity, additional data collection, and the exploration of existing data. According to the article, the efforts to prevent adolescent pregnancy have shifted to include middle school students. Dating relationships, sexual touching, and oral sex involving middle school youth in the U.S. are examined.
