Results from the 1988 and 1995 National Surveys of Adolescent Males were compared. Results. The proportion of never-married 15-to 19-year-old males who had had sex with a female declined from 60% to 55% (P=06). The share of those sexually active using a condom at last intercourse rose from 57% to 67% (P<. 01). Overall, the proportion of who had sex without condoms last year declined from 37% Conclusions. Although protective behaviors among teenagers have increased, significant proportions of teenagers - especially Black and Hispanic males-remain unprotected.
