Influences on Youth Sexual Behaviour in Central Java: Implication of Sexual and Reproductive Health Policy and Services. Indonesian youth nowadays have been experiencing an increasing vulnerability to various kind of health hazards specially related to reproductive and sexual health, including the growing threat of HJV/AIDS. This paper reports on findings from a study undertaken during the year 2003-2004 among urban youth in Central Java. The study seeks to identify factors influencing youth sexual behavior and their need for services, in order to derive practical policy for enhancing youth sexual and reproductive health services. The study involved a total of 2000 samples derived from a youth population, aged 18-24 years old. A group of 1000 samples was randomly selected from a working youth population through factory employers, whereas the other 1000 samples were from middle class youth among university students. Social learning theory was applied as a base of the conceptual framework of the study with quantitative surveys and qualitative methods The fmdings showed that the overall pattern of sexual and reproductive youth health risk were relatively low in comparison to that in many other countries, which was partly related to distinctive and positive characteristics of the culture of the community in Central Java. The findings also showed that self efficacy was the strongest influencing factor on youth sexual behavior. Future policies and program development should be addressed to the ways in maintaining young people’s positive norms and values in line with the existing culture and religion by enhancing their self efficacy through school-based sexual and reproductive health education and services. Advocacy should also be used continuously to address environmental constraints that impede the adoption of healthy reproductive health behavior.
