Study type | Interventional |
The purpose of this study is to determine whether watching the MTV (Music Television)
television show "16 and Pregnant" could affect teen girls' attitudes about teen pregnancy,
teen parenting, and pregnancy prevention. The investigators will recruit teen girls, ages
15-18, who will be randomized to the intervention group (who will be asked watch 4 episodes
of the show over a 4 week period) or the control group (who will not be intentionally exposed
to watching the show, and will not be told which show the intervention group is watching).
The investigators will evaluate, through survey, their attitudes about teen pregnancy and
teen parenting before and after the intervention period, and compare the two groups at the
conclusion of the study.
The investigators' hypothesis is that the teens that are exposed to watching the show will
have less favorable attitudes towards teen pregnancy and teen parenting than those teens who
are not exposed to watching the show.

Primary | Attitudes about teen pregnancy and teen parenting | The primary outcome will be the change in attitudes on teen pregnancy and teen parenting over the intervention period. This will be measured as the change in the composite score of the subjects' responses to the 44 questions from the Thoughts on Teen Parenting survey. This survey uses 5-point Likert scales for all responses. There is a minimum score of 44 and maximum score of 220, with lower scores indicating less favorable attitudes towards teen pregnancy. The change in the attitudinal score in the intervention group after the intervention will be compared to the change in the attitudinal score in the control group. | Baseline and at 6 weeks |
