Low Self-Esteem and Social Distress: Triggering Factors for Premarital Sex in Early Adult Men
- Bagikan:
Premarital sexual behavior among emerging adult males is increasing and has become a complex phenomenon
influenced by various psychosocial factors, including selfesteem and peer conformity. This study aims to
examine the relationship between selfesteem and peer conformity with premarital sexual behavior among
emerging adult men. A correlational quantitative approach was used, involving 346 respondents selected
through purposive sampling. The instruments consisted of a premarital sexual behavior scale, selfesteem
scale, and peer conformity scale. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the help of
SPSS version 26. The findings show that both selfesteem and peer conformity simultaneously have a significant
effect on premarital sexual behavior. Specifically, individuals with low selfesteem and high peer conformity
are more likely to engage in premarital sexual activities. The study concludes that both independent variables
contribute significantly to the emergence of risky sexual behavior. Therefore, interventions focusing on
strengthening selfesteem and building resistance to peer pressure are strongly recommended as preventive
efforts.
