In the article "Assessing Adolescent Pregnancy -- Maine,
1980-1996,"
two errors occurred. On page 434, the name of a survey was
incorrect. The
sentence that begins on the 12th line of the first full paragraph
should
read, "The Maine Youth Risk Behavior Survey, a survey of
adolescents in
grades 9-12, was used to obtain information about adolescent sexual
behavior." On page 436, the students being discussed were
incorrectly
identified. The last sentence of the first full paragraph should
read, "The
percentage of males and females in high school who had ever had
sexual
intercourse was 58% in 1991, 49% in 1995, and 52% in 1997; the
changes in
these percentages were not statistically significant."
