Quality assessment of sexuality education by upper secondary school students in Iceland: Cross-sectional study ENGLISH SUMMARY Quality assessment of sexuality education by upper secondary school students in Iceland: Cross-sectional study Sigfusdottir, H., Bender, S. S. and Tryggvadottir, G. B. ABSRTAKT Aim In Iceland, there are few studies about how sexuality education is taught in schools and what adolescents‘ opinions are about the education they have received. The purpose of the study was to examine the views of students in upper secondary schools on the quality of the sexuality education they have received with regard to teaching methods, educational needs and sexual self-esteem. Method This study was a cross-sectional study. A purposive sample was used to select eleven upper secondary schools around the country. The sample consisted of 2,488 participants, 18 years and older. The survey was administered in January 2022. Data analysis was based on descriptive statistics and hypothesis testing using Pearson chi-square test. Level of significance was set at p<0,05. Results Total of 648 students (26%) participated in the study, with more females than males. Two of three hypotheses about participants‘ attitude toward the teaching methods and educational needs were supported and the third one in a limited way. Significant differences were found between the attitudes of the participants who thought they had received good sexuality education compared to those who didn‘t, on the variety of teaching methods (p<0,001), teaching quality (p<0,001), fulfillment of educational needs (p<0,001), provision of good answers (p<0,001), information about contraception (p<0,001) and sexually transmitted diseases (p<0,001). Significant difference in quality assessment of sexuality education regarding sexual self-esteem was only found in two out of five items, they were: „I can easily stand up for myself when it is necessary to set boundaries in sex“ (p<0,05) and „I am not afraid to be steadfast if a sexual partner is pressuring me“ (p<0,05). Conclusions About third of the participants express their satisfaction with sexuality education. According to their assessment, good sexuality education consists of teaching procedures and how well it meets their educational needs. More emphasis needs to be on the positive aspects of sexuality in teaching such as sexual self-esteem. Keywords Sexuality education, adolescent, quality, teaching methods, educational needs, sexual self-esteem. Correspondent hes81@hi.is
