CHICAGO, IL (AP) -- Groundbreaking research suggests that pregnancy rates are
much higher among teens who watch a lot of TV with sexual dialogue and behavior
than among those who have tamer viewing tastes.
"Sex and the City," anyone? That was one of the shows used in the research.
The new study is the first to link those viewing habits with teen pregnancy,
said lead author Anita Chandra, a Rand Corp. behavioral scientist.
Teens who watched the raciest shows were twice as likely to become pregnant over
the next three years as those who watched few such programs.
Previous research by some of the same scientists had already found that watching
lots of sex on TV can influence teens to have sex at earlier ages.
Shows that highlight only the positive aspects of sexual behavior without the
risks can lead teens to have unprotected sex "before they're ready to make
responsible and informed decisions," Chandra said.
The study was released Monday in the November issue of Pediatrics.
