Item Restricted Parenting and early sexual initiation: a survival analysis(2025-06-09) Bio, Christina Hanna Jane A.; Morales, Lara Joy L.; Sabarillo, Anthony G.Building on the existing literature on family dynamics, this study provides a comprehensive survival analysis of the relationship between adolescents’ age at first sex and parenting styles in the province of Cebu. Using 2005 data from Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey and employing the Extended Cox Proportional Hazard model, the study finds that, relative to neglectful parenting style, authoritative paternal parenting has a statistically significant effect on delaying sexual debut. Maternal influence, by contrast, does not show statistically significant effects; instead, paternal strictness appears to be the key dimension that influences the timing of an adolescent’s first sexual encounter.
