A useful education session starts with the questions people want answered. Find out which topics, formats and access arrangements adults would value without asking for personal sexual histories.

This adult sex education survey helps educators plan clear, respectful information for an adult audience. It asks about learning priorities, finding trustworthy information and comfortable ways to ask questions. Build the seven optional fields in SurveyLegend, then review the planned material with an appropriately qualified educator.

When to Use This Template

Use the template before designing a voluntary adult information session or adapting materials for a new university cohort. Invite adults with different levels of prior knowledge and make clear that attendance is not tied to disclosure. The survey identifies learning preferences; it does not test sexual behavior, diagnose a condition or establish what every member of a cultural group needs.

7 Adult Sex Education Survey Questions

This survey is for adults 18 and older and asks about education preferences only. Every question is optional. Please do not share sexual experiences, health information, names or identifying details about anyone. Your answers help plan information and learning arrangements, not care or treatment.

How to Adapt the Questionnaire

Set an adult-only audience and name the purpose, educator and intended setting. Replace topics with those the qualified educator can accurately cover, and verify any service information before sharing it. Keep the questionnaire separate from personal advice requests. SurveyLegend’s article on sensitive survey questions is relevant to limiting disclosure. An unnamed question channel is not automatically anonymous; describe the actual setup accurately.

When to Ask

Ask before selecting the agenda, leaving enough time to arrange language or format support. Offer a private route to respond and an accessible paper alternative. Do not require responses in front of peers or ask someone to justify declining. Explain when the session details will be available.

How to Use the Responses

Use the top topic choices to shape an initial agenda, then read support and participation preferences together. A popular topic is not evidence that the audience has a particular behavior or medical need. Multiple answers to Question 6 can exceed 100%. Review the final open-ended question for language and format improvements, removing identifying material before sharing themes. Include clear signposting for topics outside the session’s scope.

What the Research Adds

Burchard, Laurence and Stocks (2011) used focus groups with 21 female international students from Malaysia and China at the University of Adelaide. Their abstract describes “difficulty accessing sexual health information” among the themes. That finding informs the template’s information-access and explanation questions. It is a small, context-specific study; it does not describe all international students or validate this adult questionnaire. Read the education needs study .

Frequently asked questions

Does this ask about sexual activity?

No. It asks which information and learning arrangements adults would find useful. Keep sexual behavior, medical history and individual advice requests outside the survey.

Can this version be sent to children?

No. This version is written for adults 18 and older. A program involving minors needs its own age-appropriate design and review.

Does interest in a topic mean someone needs treatment?

No. Topic interest is an education preference. Do not use these answers to infer a diagnosis or personal behavior.
