Introduction Parent (Jaccard, Dittus, & Gordon, 1996) and siblings (Widmer, 1997) are constituted as agents of sexual socialization. They are in a unique position to convey normative sexual issues, they become role models (Hovell et al., 1994, Rodgers, Rowe, & Harris, 1992) and influence sexual behavior through attitudes, practices and expressions verbal and nonverbal cues that characterize these interactions in various situations (Diop-Sidibe, 2005; Eisenberg, et al., 2006). But usually evaluated separately the relations between parent-child and sibling relationships, which favors a partial understanding of how family background influences preventive sexual behavior Objectives To assess the relationship between parental and sibling variables with the frequency of condom use. Methodology 340 sexually active college.
Descriptive cross-study comparison. We assessed sexual communication with parents, parenting styles, fraternal closeness with older and younger brother and pattern of sexual behavior. Results A correlation between the frequency of condom use in the last six months with maternal permissive parenting style in men (r = .215).
