This study aimed to examine factors affecting contraception among Korean male adolescents. The analysis was performed using data from the 2011 Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (KYRBS), which included a nationally representative sample of middle and high school students. Dependent variable was use of contraception, and independent variables were drinking, sexual behavior, using illicit drug, and internet use among 2,397 male respondents who experienced sexual intercourse. ANOVA and Logistic regression models were used to identify statistically significant factors after adjusting other covariates. lifetime alcohol use (x²=14.253, p=.013), alcohol use in the past 30 days (x²=14.129, p=.016), having been drunk in the past 30 days (x²=9.783, p=.049), sexual intercourse after drinking (x²=56.667, p＜.001), and time of internet use on weekdays except for study (F=3.081, p=.027) were found as factors affecting use of contraception. Male adolescents not having been drunk in the past 30 days (OR=18.942), not drinking before sexual intercourse (OR=8.511), having received sex education in the past 12 months (OR=27.248), and having recent drug experience (OR=6.919) showed more frequent use of contraception. Understanding sexual behaviors of male adolescents is essential to prevent unwanted pregnancy. Development of effective strategies such as reducing alcohol use and increasing sex education are needed in the further study.
