[Children's knowledge of sex behavior and contraception].
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Adolescent sexuality is not a new phenomenon, but it has been accepted differently at various times and societies. In modern times, adolescents start sexual life early, not well educated and not prepared for possible consequences. The period between the first sexual relationship, marriage and having children is prolonged with a greater possibility of having artificial abortions or sexually transmitted diseases (STD). It is of great importance to work on proper education of children and adolescents on sexual life and contraception. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An inquiry into the knowledge of sex and contraception was performed in an elementary school in Novi Sad, comprising 134 children from VII and VIII grade (aged 13-14, 77 girls and 57 boys) in order to prepare a lecture on these topics. RESULTS: Most of the knowledge on these topics children aged 13 and 14 got watching TV and reading magazines (44.15% girls and 70.17% boys) and from their friends (42.1%). Communication about sex and contraception exists mostly among friends (51.95% girls and 82.46% boys). One third of girls talk with parents and one quarter got knowledge from them. Only four boys (2.98%) had sexual intercourse without complications: artificial abortion or STD. Almost every child (96.95%) knows about AIDS and 89.25% children know about at least one method of contraception (mostly condom). Three quarters claim artificial abortion is harmful. 50% of children want more education about sex and contraception. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: Most of the knowledge on sexual life and contraception children get from various forms of mass-media and from one another which is unreliable and incomplete. Unfortunately, parents and teachers play a minor role in sex education of children. In order to prevent spreading of sexually transmitted diseases and to decrease the percentage of adolescent pregnancy and artificial abortions, it is of great importance to investigate knowledge, attitudes and practice of children and adolescents in regard to sexual life and contraception and to prepare acceptable and efficient programs for education on these topics. However, not only education is important, but also acceptance and behavior of children and adolescents resulting from these programs.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
