This study adopts cross-sectional research design and employs questionnaires in purporsive sampling of the adult staff in a military hospital in Northern Taiwan. The effective sampling is this hospital’s staff, divided into two groups-clinical ＆ non-clinical. This research is conducted to study the participant’s understanding of sex, their sexual behaviors, and the factors affecting their sexual behaviors. There are 333 questionnaires issued to both groups of participants. Which 328 are returned, giving a response rate of 81.4%. After screening out incomplete answers, there are 253 effective questionnaires.
Based on the effective questionnaires from both sampling groups, it is concluded that those participants who possess stronger knowledge about sex, are less sexually active, and are without multiple sexual partners, tend to have more positive understanding of sex, Especially the sexual health complex level. In addition, it is found that participants in the clinical group possess stronger knowledge about sex than those in the non-clinical group do. However, when it comes to predicting sexual behaviors of the participants. There is difference between these groups. In other words, sexual knowledge can only positively predict the sexual behavior of the participants in the non-clinical group. Sexual self-concepts affects the sexual behavior of both groups, but only to a certain degree. This shows that other than sexual self-concepts, there are still factors affecting sexual behavior of adults to be studied. Therefore, in studying sexual knowledge’s inference on sexual behaviors of adults, one cannot overlook the importance of sexual self-concepts between sexual knowledge and sexual behaviors, and this should be a focus of public sex education.
