Girls on Sexual Communication

Adolescents' sexual health has been an important issue for healthcare professionals,educators, and society. Conversations about sexual health are often sensitive anduncomfortable for young people. This is especially true for adolescent girls, who oftenstruggle to assert their sexual desires or preferences in relationships. Empowering youngwomen with communication and negotiation skills during sexual encounters is thereforecrucial. To address this, we developed a sexual communication program based on the ADDIEinstructional design model. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of amobile application on adolescent girls' sexual communication self‐efficacy and sexualhealth outcomes. A total of 245 emerging adult women were recruited through purposivesampling between November 2020 and July 2021, with 133 in the experimental group and 112in the control group. The experimental group received the sexual communication program,while the control group received routine care. Data were collected at three time points:baseline (T0), immediately after the 6‐week intervention (T1), and 4 weekspost‐intervention (T2).
