Description of Knowledge about Puberty among Primary School Pupils in Selected Countries
Original language description
Puberty is a significant element of sex education in the European as well as global context. Children need to be prepared for puberty in time and in an appropriate manner; this should include all related associations and contexts. Timely readiness for puberty means that children have the required knowledge before its onset – during pre-puberty when they are in primary school. The objective of the present study is to identify and describe the level of knowledge about puberty among primary school pupils. We presented the partial results in the context of the Czech Republic, Spain and China. An achievement test was used to determine the knowledge about puberty among primary school pupils. The level of knowledge about puberty was tested by means of 9 items with open-ended answers. The content of the test items focused on the following: concept of puberty; definition of puberty; puberty age range; knowledge about physical changes in boys and girls; knowledge about other changes that puberty induces; significance of puberty in human life.
