Correlates and predictors of sexual health among adolescent Latinas in the United States: a systematic review of the literature, 2004-2015.
The authors conducted a systematic literature review to better understand the correlates and predictors of sexual health among adolescent Latinas in the US. They found that results varied widely between studies, suggesting that the relationship between individual and proximal contextual variables and sexual health may be more complex than previously thought. They concluded that their review integrates the findings on correlates and predictors of sexual health among adolescent Latinas, and supports the need for strengths-based theoretically guided research on the mechanisms driving these associations.
