摘要：
Risky sexual behavior among teenagers in the United States is a noted public health concern. The purpose of this study is to examine the correlates and theoretical predictors of risky sexual behavior among American teens. Data from the Youth Risk Behavioral Survey was utilized with concepts from Routine Activities Theory guiding analyzes. Bivariate regression results indicated that components of Routine Activities Theory are moderate to strong predictors of using substances before sexual activity and having multiple sexual partners.
