El fenómeno del sexting entre los adolescentes españoles: prevalencia, actitudes, motivaciones y variables explicativas
2020
Resumen: El sexting es un fenómeno que consiste en el envío y la recepción de fotos, videos y/o mensajes de texto de naturaleza sexual a través de smartphones. Como en todos los demás países desarrollados, se está convirtiendo en una práctica cada vez más popular entre los adolescentes de España. Al tratarse de un fenómeno muy reciente todavía no existen muchos trabajos que hayan estudiado con profundidad su entidad y sus factores implicados. Por tanto, los dos objetivos de este estudio fueron determinar la prevalencia y analizar las variables explicativas del inicio y del mantenimiento de las conductas de sexting. La muestra estuvo formada por 784 adolescentes españoles (52% chicos y 48% c…
Sexting en adolescentes ¿Conscientes del peligro?
2016
Introducción: De manera general, la práctica de sexting implica la difusión de contenido de carácter sexual, normalmente producido por el mismo remitente, a través de algunos soportes y medios de uso habitual (móvil, ordenador, redes sociales, etc.). Igualmente, tiene mucho que ver con cómo se conjuga el uso de los medios tecnológicos con la vivencia de la sexualidad. Sin embargo, esta actividad deja de ser segura cuando se traiciona la confianza del remitente o protagonista, es decir, cuando el uso que se realiza de los contenidos de carácter erótico, infringen la voluntad del mismo, siendo reenviados a terceros sin su propio consentimiento. En el caso específico de adolescentes, el sextin…
The Impact of Adolescent Internet Addiction on Sexual Online Victimization: The Mediating Effects of Sexting and Body Self-Esteem
2021
Adolescents’ problematic use of the internet and the risk of sexual online victimization are an increasing concern among families, researchers, professionals and society. This study aimed to analyze the interplay between adolescents’ addiction to social networks and internet, body self-esteem and sexual–erotic risk behavior online: sexting, sextortion and grooming. While sexting refers to the voluntary engagement in texting sexual–erotic messages, sextortion and grooming are means of sexual–erotic victimization through the use of the internet. Participants were 1763 adolescents (51% girls), aged 12 to 16 years (M = 14.56

Sexting en adolescentes: perfiles, prevalencias y desarrollo de la nueva escala de medida A-SextS
2021
La práctica de sexting se define de forma general como el intercambio de contenidos multimedia de índole sexual a través de Internet. Las tasas de prevalencia de sexting en adolescentes muestran una gran variabilidad y sus correlatos sociodemográficos todavía no son concluyentes. Esta variabilidad dificulta conocer su alcance real en la vida de los adolescentes. Estudios críticos sobre el tema atribuyen la heterogeneidad de la prevalencia a cuestiones como la falta de una definición operativa de sexting y a la ausencia de un instrumento estandarizado para su medida. Esta tesis doctoral tuvo tres objetivos secuenciados: (1) estudiar empíricamente la prevalencia de sexting en adolescentes y e…

Sexting in adolescence: what are the reasons? An empirical study
2022
Objectives: This study aims to provide an in-depth analysis on the phenomenon of sexting through the investigation of the motivations that lead adolescents to such practice. We took account of gender differences and the more used varieties of sexting behaviors.

The aim of our research is to evaluate which of these motivations are mainly associated to sexting behaviors. Method: Our sample involved 157 teenagers aged from 13 and 20 years (M=17,39), among which 110 we…
Culture as an influence on sexting attitudes and behaviors: A differential analysis comparing adolescents from Spain and Colombia
2020
Abstract This study analyses the prevalence of sexting and the reasons and attitudes associated with its practice in adolescents with different cultural backgrounds (Colombia and Spain). The sample is made up of 489 Spaniards and 510 Colombians aged between 13 and 18 years. The results show that sexting is strongly influenced by gender and the country, in favor of men and Colombians respectively. The interaction between gender and country establishes that in Spain women and men practice sexting equally, while in Colombia men practice much more sexting than women. Although the practice of sexting increases progressively with age, the levels are higher among Colombian adolescents, especially …

Results highlight important differences in sexting behavior between the two countries. We have found higher levels of sexting behaviors in Mexican adolescents (41.5 %) than in Spanish adolescents (24.6 %) as well as an earlier start in Mexican adolescents. Moreover, adolescents in …
