คำสำคัญ:
Sexual abstinence, Nurse’s roles, Literature reviewบทคัดย่อ
Background: Sexual abstinence promotes well-being and purposive results in various contexts. This behavior is the primary response to maintaining well-being and preventing health problems, unwanted pregnancy, and sexually transmitted infections in adolescents. Nurses are essential in promoting sexual abstinence and need substantive knowledge of this behavior. The applications of findings will be the direction for promoting sexual abstinence.
Aim: This paper provides a literature review of sexual abstinence.
Method: Researchers searched the literature in both English and Thai language. There were Scopus, CINAHL, PubMed, PsycINFO, ProQuest, and Google Scholar databases, including dissertations and theses.
Result: Forty-three studies provided information on definitions and factors related to sexual abstinence. Modifying and interpersonal factors are perceived as essential factors in encouraging sexual abstinence.
Discussion: Perceived sexual abstinence’s definitions, factors, and nursing implications for promoting sexual abstinence were discussed.
