In studying adolescent development
adolescence can be defined biologically, as the
physical transition marked by the onset of puberty and
the termination of physical growth; cognitively, as
changes in the ability to think abstractly and multi-
dimensionally; or socially, as a period of preparation
for adult roles. Major pubertal and biological changes
include changes to the sex organs, height, weight, and
muscle mass, as well as major changes in brain
structure and organization. Cognitive advances
encompass both increment in knowledge and in the
ability to think abstractly and to reason more
effectively. The study of adolescent development often
involves interdisciplinary collaborations. For example,
researchers in neuroscience or bio-behavioral health
might focus on pubertal changes in brain structure and
its effects on cognition or social relations. Sociologists
interested in adolescence might focus on the
acquisition of social roles (e.g., worker or romantic
partner) and how this varies across cultures or social
conditions.Developmental psychologists might focus
on changes in relations with parents and peers as a
function of school structure and pubertal status. Some
scientists have questioned the universality of
adolescence as a developmental phase, arguing that
traits often considered typical of adolescents are not in
fact inherent to the teenage years (Dorn L, et al .
2011).
Quantity of the world population in the
adolescent age group is estimated at 1.2 billion or 18%
of the total world population according to the World
Health Organization (WHO, 2014).
Adolescence is a period of rapid growth and
development both physically, psychologically, and
intellectually. Typical adolescents have great curiosity,
like adventure and challenges and tend to dare to bear
the risk or actions without being preceded by careful
consideration. If decisions taken in the face of conflict
are inappropriate, they will fall into risky behavior and
may have to bear the short-term and long-term
consequences of various physical and psychosocial
health problems. (Ministry of Health, 2016).
According to the National Commission for
Child Protection survey in 33 provinces in 2008, 97%
of middle and high school adolescents had watched
pornographic films, 93.7% of middle and high school
adolescents had kissed, genitalia stimulation (touching
the genitals) and oral sex (through mouth), 62.7 % of
junior high and high school adolescents are not virgins
and 21.2% of adolescents claim to have had an
abortion (BKKBN, 2010).
Sex is something that is biological and
therefore sex is considered as something stable
(Wahid, 2011). Premarital sex is sexual relations
carried out by adolescents without any marriage ties.
While premarital sexual behavior is sexual behavior
carried out without going through an official
marriage process according to law or religion and
their respective beliefs (Sarwono, 2012).
The impact of premarital sex on physical and
psychological health include: loss of virginity and
virginity, unwanted pregnancy (KTD), abortion with
all its risks, transmission of venereal diseases
(gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV / AIDS), reproductive
tract infections, feelings of guilt shame and guilt
worthless (Sofiyan, 2012).
This is in line with the case cited by Susanto,
et al (2002), quoting from the Bernas Daily January
18, 2001 that a senior researcher at the UGM
Population Research Center stated that in 2000 there
were 700 teenagers and female students who became
pregnant out of wedlock coming to Yogyakarta
Family Planning Association (PKBI) to consult
about their pregnancy problems.
How someone is raised in a family
environment turns out to be very influential in one's
next life as an adult. The attachment that parents
instill from childhood becomes one's capital in
dealing with life and interacting with the
environment.
In line with research conducted by Rika, et al
(2017) in adolescents at SMP Negeri 21 PekanBaru,
aged 12-15 years, which were determined through
cluster random sampling techniques. Based on
multiple linear regression correlation analysis shows
that there is a relationship between attachment
(attachment) in the mother and father with social
competence in adolescents (F = 5.444; R = 0.229 'p
= 0.005). Attachment to mother and father has a
contribution of 5.3% to social competence.
Open access to information allows anyone to
access various kinds of information including
presenting sexual scenes explicitly. Existing media,
both electronic and print media, often provide
presentations that are too early or not suitable for
consumption for teenagers. this is a trend now is the
existence of Facebook that is widely known in our
society. The social network in addition to bringing
positive benefits also brings negative impacts for
teens (Yulianto, 2017).
Data from the Indonesian Ministry of
Communication and Information in 2011 showed that
64% of Facebook social media users in Indonesia
were teenagers. The high use of social media among
adolescents shows that adolescents are so
enthusiastic in communication.
Issues that are still being debated to date
include the primary motivation of adolescents to
