dc.description.abstractEl objetivo del estudio fue analizar la relación entre varios pre- dictores social-cognitivos del comportamiento sexual (creencias, conoci- mientos, actitudes y valores), las conductas sexuales, la frecuencia de acti- vidades sexuales y diferentes dimensiones de la satisfacción sexual (indivi- dual/de pareja y actual/deseada). Para ello se utilizó un paradigma mixto de investigación. Para recabar los datos se diseñó una entrevista semies- tructurada que fue administrada a mujeres jóvenes de entre 14 y 20 años. El análisis de correlaciones indicó que no se establecen las relaciones direc- tas esperadas entre los predictores social-cognitivos, la conducta y la satis- facción sexual, por lo que se exploraron posibles efectos indirectos. Los re- sultados del modelo de mediación que mejor se ajusta a los datos revelaron que los comportamientos sexuales se asocian a la satisfacción sexual (ac- tual) de forma directa e indirecta a través de la frecuencia con que se prac- tican las actividades sexuales en un (probable) efecto de mediación parcial. Estos hallazgos tienen interesantes aplicaciones prácticas en términos de educación sexual y promoción de la salud sexual en mujeres jóvenes.es
dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study was to analyse the relationship among several social-cognitive predictors of sexual behaviour (beliefs, knowledge, attitudes and values), sexual behaviours, the frequency of sexual activities and several dimensions of sexual satisfaction (individual/with the partner and actual/desired sexual satisfaction). A mixed-method study was con- ducted. The data were collected using a semi-structured interview specially designed for this study, which was administered to 14- to 20-year-old women. Correlation analyses revealed that the expected direct associations between the explored social-cognitive predictors, sexual behaviour and sexual satisfaction were not established; consequently, possible indirect ef- fects were explored. The results of the mediational model that better fit the data indicated that sexual behaviour is related to (actual) sexual satis- faction not only directly but also indirectly through the frequency of sexual activities in a (probable) effect of partial mediation. These findings have interesting applications in terms of sexual education and sexual health promotion among young women.es
