The study examines religiosity's effects on sexual behavior among college students, suggesting implications for sexual experiences.

This research aims to explore how religiosity influences sexual behavior among heterosexual college students.
Sample included 441 college students (290 females, 151 males).
Examined a range of sexual behaviors in relation to religiosity.
Analyzed differences in sexual experience sequences, particularly among males.
Religiosity negatively correlated with overall sexual experience in both genders.
Highly religious males often experience oral sex before intercourse, a reversal of typical behavior sequences.
The sequence reversal reflects an interplay between religious beliefs and social pressures around sexual experiences.

Eldon R. Mahoney (1980) studied this question.
