After
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an adapted (eight-hour) version of Reducing the Risk implemented in a set of rural Kentucky high schools. We examine impacts on knowledge of contraception and STIs, attitudes toward abstinence and condom use, intentions to have sex, and sexual risk behaviors one and two years after receiving the program.
