UW Study: Teens Have Safer Sex In College

POSTED: 5:34 am PDT June 6, 2008
UPDATED: 5:46 am PDT June 6, 2008

A University of Washington study says adolescents engage in less risky sexual behavior if they go to college.

The study in this month's Journal of Adolescent Health says college students are less prone to risky sexual behavior than teens not in a two-or four-year college.

According to the study, teens not in college and living with their parents engage in risky sexual behavior as much as other teens not in school.
