Parental Mental Disorders and Children’s Sex and Contraception

This webinar links the new CVFS-YAS continuous measures of sex and contraceptive use to the prior measures of parental mental health. This design allows investigation of the associations between parental major depressive disorder (MDD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) and their children’s sex and contraceptive use years later, during the transition to adulthood. The CVFS-YAS measures sexual activity independent of marriage, identifying both premarital sex and months after marriage with no sexual activity.
