Abstract:
Objective:To assess the current situation and related factors of the knowledge, attitude and behavior toward sexual abuse prevention among primary school students in Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, so as to provide a reference basis for the development of sexual abuse prevention education for primary school students.
Methods:A total of 4 563 primary school students in Luzhou City were sampled from December 2023 to January 2024 by stratified cluster sampling, and self administered questionnaires were conducted. The binary Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze related factors of the knowledge, attitude and behavior toward sexual abuse prevention.
Results:The qualified rates of knowledge, behavior and attitude among primary school students towards sexual abuse prevention in Luzhou were 76.2%, 21.3%, and 90.2 %, respectively. The binary Logistic regression showed that males ( OR=0.66, 95%CI =0.56-0.78), attending rural schools ( OR=0.77, 95%CI =0.64-0.92), left behind status ( OR=0.66, 95%CI =0.53-0.81), and household registration in Lu County ( OR=0.57, 95%CI =0.46-0.70) and Gulin County ( OR=0.70, 95%CI =0.57-0.86) had lower qualified rates of the knowledge of sexual abuse prevention among primary school students ( P < 0.05 ); while qualified knowledge of sexual abuse prevention was positively associated with grade ( OR =3.05-18.81); attending rural schools ( OR=0.82, 95%CI =0.70-0.95) and not having received education on prevention of sexual abuse ( OR=0.55, 95%CI = 0.47-0.64) had lower qualified rates of the behavior of sexual abuse prevention among primary school students ( P <0.05); household registration in Lu County ( OR=0.73, 95%CI =0.58-0.92) and not having received education on prevention of sexual abuse ( OR=0.33, 95%CI =0.26-0.40) had lower qualified rates of the educational attitudes of sexual abuse prevention among primary school students ( P <0.05).
Conclusions:The qualified rates of knowledge and behavior of sexual abuse prevention among primary school students in Luzhou City needs to be improved. Health education regarding sexual abuse prevention might help enhance primary school students awareness and skills of sexual abuse prevention.
