Abstract

Adolescence is the age where individuals integrate with adult society. Integration in society has an effective aspect, more or less related to puberty, including striking intellectual changes. Adolescents are more prone to risk behavior due to psycho-social influences, namely limited ability to think logically, the ability to regulate weak emotions, and the influence of peers. The purpose of this study was to improve the ability of adolescent resilience to avoid free sex, HIV/AIDS and drugs based on Sekaa Teruna in the Nongan village, Karangasem and Ketewel village, Gianyar.
