[Masturbation in adolescents].
Examination of a group of 602 Czech girls and group of 192 Czech boys aged 16 to 18 years revealed that differences in the occurrence of masturbation are in our population markedly greater than in German or American university students. In the examined groups cca 90% boys and only 6% of the examined girls masturbated. There were also marked differences in the frequency of masturbation. In our population so far the consequences of sexual liberalization after social changes at the end of 1989 are not yet manifest. It can be, however, assumed that in our country liberalization will also lead to a diminution of differences in the occurrence and frequency of masturbation between the two sexes. The authors hold the view that an important part is played also by biological factors, in particular those of a hormonal character.
