同伴的力量:性規範如何塑造青少年對性經歷的情緒反應 The Power of Peers: How Sexual Norms Shape Adolescents’ Emotional Responses to Sexual Experiences ——《性研究雜誌》2026年4月27日在線發表—— <The Journal of Sex Research>, Published online: 27 April 2026 【摘要】同伴規範在塑造青少年的性觀念與性行為方面發揮着關鍵作用。儘管既往研究主要聚焦於青少年的性經曆本身,但對於同伴規範如何影響青少年對這些性經歷所產生的“情緒反應”,目前人們知之甚少。本研究考察了三種類型的(感知到的)性同伴規範——即描述性規範(同伴的性行為)、指令性規範(同伴對性行為的認可)以及同伴壓力(發生性行為的壓力)——與青少年對性經歷所產生的積極情緒(如快樂、自豪、被愛感)及消極情緒(如羞愧、內疚、污穢感)之間的縱向關聯,並對這種關聯在不同性別和年齡群體中的表現進行了探究。本研究數據來源於“STARS項目”(Project STARS),這是一項關於青少年性發展的荷蘭縱向研究;該項目對240名已有性經歷的青少年(年齡範圍:12–18歲;平均年齡:14.73歲;標準差:1.24)進行了為期18個月的追蹤調查。研究結果顯示,隨着時間的推移,描述性規範與青少年消極情緒的減少呈顯著關聯;相比之下,指令性規範和同伴壓力則未表現出此類關聯。此外,上述三種同伴規範均未與青少年的積極情緒表現出顯著關聯。儘管在青少年男生與女生之間未發現顯著差異,但“同伴性行為”與“積極情緒”之間的關聯卻隨年齡增長呈現出差異性:在年齡較小的青少年群體中(T4時點年齡為13–15歲),二者呈負相關關係;而在年齡較大的青少年群體中(T4時點年齡為16–19歲),二者則呈正相關關係。這些研究發現突顯了以下兩點的重要性:既要充分關注青少年對性經歷所產生的積極與消極雙重情緒反應,又要重視同伴規範影響力隨青少年發展階段而呈現出的差異性;唯有如此,方能更好地支持青少年實現情緒健康的性發展。 [Abstract] Peer norms play a key role in shaping adolescents’ sexuality. While research has focused primarily on adolescents’ sexual experiences, little is known about how peer norms influence emotional responses to these sexual experiences. This study examined the longitudinal associations between three types of (perceived) sexual peer norms: descriptive norms (sexual peer behavior), injunctive norms (peer sexual approval), and peer pressure (to have sex), and adolescents’ positive (happy, proud, loved) and negative (ashamed, guilty, dirty) emotional responses to sexual experiences, across gender and age. Data were drawn from Project STARS, a Dutch longitudinal study on adolescent sexuality, which followed 240 sexually experienced adolescents (12–18 years old, Mage = 14.73, SD = 1.24) over 18 months. Results showed that descriptive norms were associated with less negative emotions over time, while injunctive norms and peer pressure showed no such relationship. None of the three peer norms were significantly related to positive emotions. Although no significant differences emerged between adolescent boys and girls, the relation between sexual peer behavior and positive emotions differed by age: a negative relation was found for younger adolescents (13–15 years at T4), and a positive one for older adolescents (16–19 years at T4). These findings highlight the importance of acknowledging both positive and negative emotional responses to sexual experiences, as well as developmental differences in peer norm influence, to better support adolescents’ emotionally healthy sexual development. 論文原文:E.
