Abstract
The authors surveyed 23 psychiatrically hospitalized adolescent girls regarding behavior that involves high risk of HIV infection. Over half (57%) of the girls reported high-risk sexual activities; these girls were more likely to have sexually transmitted diseases, substantial drug abuse histories, and diagnoses of conduct disorder.
