Sažetak
This paper attempts to trace changes in sexual attitudes, knowledge about human sexuality and sexual responsibility in late adolescence. It analyzes Croatian college students’ sexual permissiveness, perception of male and female sexual rights, sexual literacy, and sexual behavior. The total of 1392 freshmen at the University of Zagreb was surveyed as part of the Longitudinal Observation of Sexual Knowledge, Behavior and Attitudes in Late Adolescence Project, of whom 1355 filled the questionnaire in 1998 and 557 in 2003. During the observed period sexual permissiveness and sexual literacy decreased, while sexual egalitarianism and sexual responsibility (measured by condom use, use of contraceptives in general, and the number of sexual partners) remained unchanged. The changes, it is argued, are the consequence of the process of religious re-traditionalization, which operates primarily through more widespread religious upbringing at home, as well as through intensified impact of school-based religious education on certain students.
