Abstract
El objetivo de este estudio fue triple: validar una versión de la Escala de Comportamientos de Sexting en adolescentes, evaluar la prevalencia de dichos comportamientos y determinar sus consecuencias asociadas. Participaron un total de 1,271 estudiantes(50.8% chicas), con una media de edad de 15.6 (DT = 1.13). Los resultados muestran a través del análisis factorial confirmatorio un buen ajuste por el modelo bidimensional formado por ítems que se agrupan en el envío de fotos y/o vídeos (α = .83) y el envío de mensajes de texto con contenido erótico/sexual (α = .83). Se ha identificado que el 52.8% de los adolescentes han llevado a cabo conductas de sexting, siendo mayor el envío de textos erótico/sexuales (91.7%) que de fotos y/o vídeos (57.8%), y que los chicos son los que más contenidos envían. Además, el 11.6% de los adolescentes fueron obligados a enviar contenido de sexting y el 5.5% fueron chantajeados.
The objective of this study was threefold: to validate a version of the Sexting Behavior Scale in adolescents, to assess the prevalence of sexting behaviors, and to determine their associated consequences. A total of 1,271 (50.8% girls) students participated, with a mean age of 15.6 (SD = 1.13). The results show through the confirmatory factor analysis a good fit for the two-dimensional model consisting of items that are grouped into sending photos and/or vídeos (α = .83) and sending text messages with erotic/sexual content (α = .83); 52.8% of adolescents have been identified to carry out sexting behaviors, with texts (91.7%) being more erotic/sexual than photos and/or vídeos (57.8%), and boys the ones that most content send. In addition, 11.6% of adolescents were forced to send sexting content and 5.5% of them were blackmailed.
