There were significant correlations between experience of attending sexual education(r=.32, p=.003) and sexual knowledge(r=.14, p=.047) with sexual healthcare attitude. Sexual education on the job(β=.13, p=.004), supplementary sexual education(β=.17, p=.009), sexual knowledge(β=.16, p=.048), and obstetrics and gynecology department carrier(β=.29, p<.001) explained 14.0% of sexual healthcare attitude.
