Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Bearman and Brueckner (2001) performed a survey and they found that teens who made a public virginity-until-marriage pledge became more likely to remain sexually abstinent than similar teens who do not make the pledge.

This was because they would strive to follow through to the public pledges they made whereas those who didn’t had no obligation to fulfilling any pledge.
