Association between Sexual Behavior and Depression in South Korean Adolescents: A Cross-Sectional Study

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Line numbering is generally is generally  presented on the left side.

Table one should be broken down into multiple tables (at least 3).

All tables and figures should have an introduction followed by a summary instead of summarizing before the table.

The references should follow a standard format for the style chosen.  For example, articles in journals should be in lower case.

For citations, the first should list all authors before using et al.

The word percent should be written when in text, and use the symbol in tables and figures.

Reviewer 2 Report

This is a very important study and I believe has the potential of making a strong contribution to the extant literature. There are a few major problems that have to be addressed but they are based in the analysis and not the actual study and can be addressed. I strongly encourage the authors to make the needed changes so that this paper can go forward.  I have left almost 30 comments in the paper to provide suggestions for improvement.
