Development and Validation of the Sexual Psychoeducation Module for Adolescents

Abstract

In Yogyakarta, Indonesia the prevalence of sexual activities in adolescents seems to be high. Data from PSS PKBI DIY (2004) showed that 12.1% adolescents in Yogyakarta had premarital sexual activities. In social media, premarital sexual activities in adolescents are seen as normal activity. The inadequate implementation of sexual education, inappropriate sexual knowledge, and the sexual urges that arise in adolescents cause adolescents to be vulnerable to risky sexual activities. This raises various problems in adolescents, such as reproductive health problems, unwanted pregnancies, abortions, and early-age marriage. This study aims to develop and validate Sexual Psychoeducation Module for Adolescents. The test results of the content validity of the module using Aiken's V shows a value ranging from 0,833-1 for each session. Sexual PsychoeducationModule has good content validity.
