Summary of the FGDs and KIIs.

This study explores the influence of situational context on parent-adolescent communication about sexual and reproductive health (SRH) issues in the urban slums of Ibadan, Nigeria. A qualitative exploratory study was conducted in the Southeast and Northeast LGAs of Ibadan. Eight (8) vignette-based focus group discussions (FGDs) with parents and adolescents of both sexes were conducted in addition to four (4) key informant interviews (KIIs) with community and women’s leaders. Interviews were tape-recorded, transcribed, and translated into English. Thematic analysis was adopted using ATLAS Ti 9 software. Findings portray SRH meanings and experiences, intergenerational cultural norms, and expectations for SRH, gender double standards in SRH discussion, streetwise SRH knowledge, and social media exposure as contexts that interfere with parent-adolescent communication on SRH issues. The findings show that despite understanding the need for SRH discussion, parents and adolescents lack effective communication on SRH issues due to the interference of unfiltered streetwise SRH knowledge and social media exposure. Also, SRH conversation between parents and adolescents promotes gender inequalities as different information is passed to adolescent girls and boys. Interventions that take into account situational occurrences must be geared towards enabling parents to give their adolescents early exposure to relevant, context-specific SRH knowledge.本研究聚焦尼日利亚伊巴丹城市贫民窟内，情境语境对父母与青少年间性与生殖健康（Sexual and Reproductive Health, SRH）议题沟通的影响。研究在伊巴丹东南部与东北部地方政府辖区（Local Government Areas, LGAs）开展，属于质性探索性研究。本研究共开展8场面向不同性别父母与青少年的基于情境小故事（vignette）的焦点小组讨论（Focus Group Discussions, FGDs），并辅以4场针对社区与妇女领袖的关键知情人访谈（Key Informant Interviews, KIIs）。所有访谈均进行录音、转录，并翻译为英文。本研究采用ATLAS.ti 9软件开展主题分析。研究结果揭示了诸多会干扰父母与青少年间性与生殖健康议题沟通的情境因素，包括：性与生殖健康的认知与体验、代际文化规范及性与生殖健康相关期待、性与生殖健康讨论中的性别双重标准、街头习得的性与生殖健康知识，以及社交媒体接触情况。研究显示，尽管父母与青少年均认可开展性与生殖健康议题沟通的必要性，但由于未经过滤的街头习得性与生殖健康知识及社交媒体接触的干扰，双方难以实现有效的性与生殖健康沟通。此外，父母与青少年间的性与生殖健康沟通还会加剧性别不平等，因为向青少年男女孩传递的信息存在差异。因此，需设计兼顾具体情境的干预方案，助力父母尽早向青少年传授契合当地场景的针对性性与生殖健康知识。
