| المستخلص: | This study aimed to explore Jewish-Israeli and Palestinian teachers’opinions towards sex education programs. The Jewish-Israeli society adopts a Western culture, whereas the Palestinian society in Israel adopts a collectivistic culture, which follows Islamic values. The degree of observance of religion in Jewish-Israeli society influences its social life, which is not the case in the Palestinian society in Israel. Little is known about teachers’ attitudes towards sex education in Israel and the influence of socio-cultural background and religious degree on these attitudes. This study assumed that: First, Jewish-Israeli teachers would be more supportive of sex education programs than their Palestinian counterparts. Second, a greater degree of religious observance would influence teachers’ attitudes, only among Jewish participants. The study sample included 302 teachers: 206 Palestinians (64 males, 142 females) whose ages range between 23 and 61 years (M=37.64; SD=7.69), along with 96 Jewish-Israelis (53 males, 43 females), whose ages range between 25 and 61 years (M=40.43, SD=8.77). The participants answered a demographic questionnaire and a sex education questionnaire. The research results indicate that teachers strongly support the inclusion of sex education programs in schools’ curricula; however, Palestinian teachers were more reluctant of discussing students’ sexual behaviors, compared to Jewish teachers. As expected, the religious degree was more influential in Jewish teachers’ attitudes than in Palestinians. Religious Jewish teachers supported including content that prevents students from having sexual intercourse, more than secular or non-religious teachers. Our study highlights socio-cultural and religious influences on teachers’ attitudes towards sex-education. Recommendations for researchers and education practitioners are also provided in this article. |
