Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Research on teenage sexual behavior is valuable because it provides information that public health agencies and schools can circulate about sexually transmitted diseases (such as HIV) and contraception. Nonetheless, many local jurisdictions have refused to let social scientists study adolescent sexual behavior. Some parents believe that such research violates student privacy and might make a school district look bad (if a study reports a high incidence of drug use or sexual activity, for example). Some religious groups, school administrators, and politicians have also opposed studies on teen sexuality because they believe that the research undermines traditional family values or makes deviant behavior seem normal.
