Interest in cosmetic surgery is increasing among teenagers in Tasmania, with one plastic surgeon reporting that 30-50 teenagers per year contact him with inquiries about treatments such as rhinoplasty, liposuction, breast enhancement and ear pinning. For links within school classes, work, and gatherings of older adults, we assumed the simplest subnetwork that imposes local clustering: a ring lattice in which a person is linked to 2 (for children or teenager classes and gatherings of older adults) or 3 (adult work) neighboring persons on each side along the ring. Similarly, one in 10 teenagers who initially reported being sexually experienced claimed never to have had sex when asked in the second interview; the odds of this change were raised among those who had taken a virginity pledge and those who said they had been born again since Wave 1. |
