Abstract

Recent trends among adolescents in Indonesia indicate an increasing prevalence of premarital sexual behavior, suggesting that virginity value is not upheld by all Indonesian adolescents. In addition to virginity value, premarital sexual behavior is also associated with religiosity. This study examined religiosity as a predictor of virginity value using data from 656 late adolescent students in Indonesia. An ordinal regression model was employed to test the predictive relationship. The findings revealed that religiosity was a significant positive predictor of virginity value. The results also showed that all dimensions of religiosity were positively correlated with virginity value. These findings highlight the importance of considering religiosity in the development of educational programs and interventions related to adolescent sexual health in Indonesia.
