| description | Sexual behavior protection in teenagers: a positive psychology approach
Nowadays, sexual behavior in teenagers continues being a topic of study
for numerous researches, due to the biological, psychological and social
repercussions they cause, turning into a problem of public health worldwide
and specially in Venezuela. This segment of population is considered to be
a vulnerable group due to their own changes at this growing stage, if these
changes are not treated adequately teenagers can go through high-risk sexual
practices, jeopardizing their own and others’ health. For long, researches
focusing on this problem, have addressed a risk approach, intended to
prevent pathologies, tossing aside the strengthening of potentials and skills
of a person as a mechanism to promote health. Therefore a movement emerges in psychology field: Positive Psychology, which manages to rescue
another forgotten opposite side, that is to say, the increase of the potentials,
resources, well-being, qualities and positive aspects, and the capacity of
overcoming adversities, which up today, they are slightly studied by the risk
approach perspective. Studies indicate that protection factors take place to
assist teenagers to carry out protection sexual behaviors like sexual resilience,
confronting styles, familiar communication, autoefficiency, self esteem and
social support. All these qualities and positive aspects seem to be the most
convincing reasons to promote sexual healthy behaviors among teenagers
and to implement educational programs oriented towards strengthening
sexual practices and greater accountability. |
