Sexuality and Relationship Education Program for Autistic Young Adults in South Korea

The goal of this single-arm clinical trial is to conduct a preliminary evaluation of Our Love, Our Style, a group-based sexuality and relationship education program for autistic young adults in South Korea. The study aims to examine the preliminary efficacy of the program by assessing increases in sexuality knowledge, sexual and relationship behaviors, and motivation. It will also evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of implementing the program among Korean autistic young adults. Participants will receive a 10-session, online, group-based program (90 minutes per session, once a week for 10 weeks) delivered via telehealth. The program is adapted to the Korean cultural context and tailored to the needs of autistic young adults aged 18-35 years. It will cover the following topics: social relationships (e.g., distinguishing types of relationships, apologizing, and refusing), romantic relationships, consent, sexual behavior, reproduction, prevention of sexual harassment, online and social media use related to sexuality, gender, and sexual orientation.
