Abstract
This study deals with sexual behaviour of adolescents in a rural area of South Africa. The primary objective is to explore the sexual behaviour of rural adolescents, specifically with regard to the first time they engage in sexual intercourse, the number of sexual partners, their use of contraceptives and their knowledge of HIV/AIDS and how this influences their sexual activity. This study also examines how alcohol drinking, cigarette smoking, drug and substance use affect adolescent sexuality. Lastly, it explores the influence of religion and family connectedness on adolescent sexuality.
