abstract="A factor analysis of the Adolescent Reinforcement Survey Schedule (ARSS) with a male and female college freshman (N = 231) population yielded 10 interpretable factors: Heterosexual Dating, Peer Interaction, Sibling/Family Interaction, Sexual Pleasure, Anti-School/Work, Leisure/Work Activity, Drugs/Acting Out, Entertainment/Social Activity, Home Avoidance, and Romantic Fantasy Activity. The first three factors are similar to a Positive Social interaction factor identified in a study that used the adult form of the Reinforcement Survey Schedule with a male and female college population. Suggestions are made from the ARSS responses of the college freshmen re interventions to facilitate social skill competency and the relationship aspects of sexual activity. A recommendation is made to replicate the current study with groups of early and mid-adolescents in order to study reinforces during different periods of adolescent development.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
