Zusammenfassung:The objective of this study was to assess sexual related behaviour among Romanian high school and university students, giving special attention to possible age and gender differences. The data were obtained from a cross-sectional study using anonymous questionnaires conducted among 968 high school and university students aged 15-24 years from two counties-Cluj and Hunedoara- of Romania. The study confirms the early age of sexual initiation, particularly amongst males and the importance of providing and reinforcing safe sex messages early, starting with the last years of secondary school and continuing during high school and university.
