Description: This multidisciplinary bio-behavioral research study builds upon two national probability-based surveys of reproductive and sexual health in emerging adults (18-25) carried out in 2005 and 2010. The project has two aims: (1) to describe and analyze the current prevalence of risky sexual behaviors, as well as its dynamics in the 2005-2020 period using repeated cross-sectional data; and (2) to provide a systematic assessment of the role of personal faith and religiosity in emerging adults’ sexual and reproductive health. The second aim is related to growing levels of religiosity among young people and the absence of comprehensive school-based sexuality education in Croatia.
