Academic Achievement: Childbearing Rates |
|
|
|
Two programs increased knowledge of contraceptives and responsible
sexual behavior in participants, but did not consistently result in
decreased participation in risky behaviors such as becoming sexually
active without using contraceptives.QOP, STEP
For example, STEP increased reported contraceptive use among one of
two groups of program participants, but pregnancy rates of program and
control groups did not differ significantly in the long term.
QOP had no initial impact on the childbearing rate, but program
participants were found to have fewer children one year after the end of
the program. No difference in
childbearing was found between CAR participants and the comparison and
control groups.
