[Who counsels young people on contraception?].
In October 1989 a representative sample consisting of 359 women (response rate = 77.9%) and 400 women (response rate = 76.3%) aged 16-20-years old was interviewed by the professional interviewer staff of the Institute for Social Research. The purpose of the investigation was to illustrate whether AIDS and "Safe sex"-campaigns have influenced young people. This paper deals with data about contraceptive counselling. The majority (284 (79.1%) among women and 270 (67.5%) among men) would attend the general practitioner for contraceptive guidance. The public Contraceptive Guidance Clinics are considered an alternative source of service. In all, 38.2% of females and 29.3% of males knew of the existence of a clinic. This knowledge was not associated with age or education of the respondent. Among men information about the clinic was associated with sexual experience. Schools appear to be an effective channel of information. In the county of Ribe more than 80% among both sexes knew th public clinic.
