Description
Summary:Sexual and reproductive health in adolescents has been widely addressed in the literature, since lack of awareness and appropriate behavior in sexual practices at an early age can generate serious problems such as early pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections. In this sense, the objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the COMPAS program in promoting healthy sexuality in Afro-Colombian adolescents in the city of Barranquilla. Based on a quasiexperimental methodology with a quantitative approach such as pre-tests and poles, an intervention was carried out with the COMPAS program. First, a pre-test questionnaire was applied as an initial diagnosis to an intentional sample of 128 students divided into an experimental and control group of 64 each, all of whom belonged to the La Esmeralda and Institución Etnoeducativa Paulino Salgado Batata schools; then the five sessions of the COMPAS program were carried out, ending in a third stage with the post-test phase, where an evaluation was applied to determine significant changes. In the results, it was identified that sexual practices in adolescents are common, and the T Student test carried out revealed that there are no significant differences in the knowledge, beliefs, attitudes and sexual behavior of adolescents after the intervention with the COMPAS program. It is concluded that students did not modify the above components, which is discussed in light of recent literature.
