DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This project will develop and evaluate a theoretically-based interactive multi-media program for use by parents and their adolescent children (10-14 years of age) to prevent adolescent pregnancy. The program will have behaviorally focused communication skills training and educational content that is both tailored and targeted to the user. It will be tailored by parental values regarding adolescent sexual behavior (i.e., (a) delay sexual involvement (DSI) and provide the child with education about contraceptives and sexually transmitted infections (STI), (b) DSI with no contraceptive/STI education, or (c) abstinence with no contraceptive/STI education). In addition, program content will be targeted by (a) parental race/ethnicity (i.e., African American, Caucasian, and Hispanic), (c) parental gender, and (d) gender of the child. When complete, this comprehensive program will include a component for use by the parent, and another for use by the parent and child together. The program will be designed to effectively address the knowledge deficits of both parents and their children, and provide training and modeling in effective communication between the parent and child that are consistent with the parent's values regarding adolescent sexual behavior. The program will be developed in CD-ROM, Internet/intranet, DVD and VHS videotape formats. It will be appropriate for use in a broad range of settings (e.g., homes, worksites, health and community organizations). The Phase I prototype will target African American mothers of daughters (the subgroup at highest risk for adolescent unintended pregnancy) who value DSI, but want contraceptive/STI education. It will be evaluated in a randomized trial at 2 urban community centers.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目将开发和评估一个基于理论上的互动多媒体计划，供父母及其青春期儿童（10-14岁）使用，以防止青少年怀孕。该计划将拥有以行为为重点的沟通技巧培训和教育内容，这些培训既量身定制，又针对用户。它将由父母价值观量身定制有关青少年性行为的价值观（即（a）延迟性参与（DSI），并为孩子提供有关避孕药和性传播感染（STI）的教育（（b）DSI，没有避孕/STI教育，或（c）禁欲没有避孕/STI教育）。此外，计划内容将由（a）父母种族/民族（即非裔美国人，高加索人和西班牙裔），（c）父母性别和（d）儿童的性别的目标。完成后，此综合程序将包括一个供父母使用的组件，以及另一个用于父母和孩子一起使用的组件。该计划将旨在有效地解决父母及其子女的知识缺陷，并在父母和子女之间有效沟通的培训和建模与父母在青少年性行为方面的价值观一致。该程序将以CD-ROM，Internet/Intranet，DVD和VHS录像带格式开发。它适用于在广泛的设置（例如房屋，工作地点，健康和社区组织）中使用。 I阶段原型将针对非洲裔美国女儿母亲（对青少年意外怀孕的最高风险的亚组），他们重视DSI，但需要避孕/STI教育。它将在两个城市社区中心的随机试验中进行评估。
