Adolescent Sexting: A Narrative Review

“…The participants experienced reduced pain as well as decreased fatigue, stress, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate. These results, like many others from exercise studies, likely resulted from stimulation of pressure receptors leading to increased vagal activity and the release of serotonin as an anti-pain neurotransmitter [25]. Vagal activity may be a potential underlying mechanism for the exercise effects.…”

This narrative review of research includes summaries of 62 papers on exercise for reducing pain and stress that were published during the years 2018 to 2023. The publications of this period are primarily randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews/ meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials. Many of these are focused on exercise reducing low back pain and fibromyalgia. Other pain conditions include neck, knee and shoulder pain. Surprisingly, only one study appeared in this literature on arthritis, although it is reputedly the second most prevalent form of pain next to low back pain. Some of the researchers compared different forms of exercise including resistance training, aerobics and lower intensity exercise, as in yoga and Pilates, and the findings on exercise intensity are mixed. Many researchers have addressed potential underlying biological mechanisms for exercise effects including increased parasympathetic and dopaminergic activity and decreased inflammation, oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-6 and C-reactive protein. Methodological problems relate to the assessment of combined exercise styles and their differing intensity and the more frequent measurement of negative effects as in pain and stress, although the mechanism studies highlight the positive physiological effects of exercise.This narrative review involved entering the terms exercise, pain and stress and the years 2018-2023 into PubMed and PsycINFO. Although the search yielded 1408 papers for the last five years. exclusion criteria, including case studies, non-English papers and study protocols, reduced the number to 62 papers. The recent literature on exercise for pain and stress features studies on reducing low back pain, neck pain, knee osteoarthritis pain and fibromyalgia pain. Underlying mechanism research on exercise effects suggests increased parasympathetic and dopaminergic activity and decreased inflammation, oxidative stress, and proinflammatory cytokines including IL-6 and C-reactive protein. Methodological limitations relate to the assessment of combined exercise styles and their differing intensity and the more frequent measurement of negative effects as in pain and stress, although the mechanism studies highlight the positive physiological effects of exercise. This narrative review is accordingly divided into sections on adult pain conditions, potential underlying biological mechanisms and methodological limitations of the literature.

“…The view of this committee was that exposure to pornography increases the risk of sexually transmitted infections and pregnancy. Although external locus of control has been a significant factor in at least one study (Efrati & Gola, 2018), the absence of peer pressure variables in this research is surprising as it appears in the literature on comorbidities of pornography including Internet addiction , cyberbullying (Field, 2019), and sexting (Field, 2019). In a study on profiles of compulsive sexual behavior among adolescents, individuals who engaged in pornography had external locus of control along with greater loneliness and more sex-related online activity (Efrati et al, 2018).…”

“…That sex-free group engaged in lower pornography consumption and also had lower sexual desire and lower alcohol and tobacco consumption. The absence of literature on substance use as a risk factor for pornography in adolescents is surprising given its frequent association with other Internetrelated activities including Internet addiction and sexting (Field, 2019), activities that would be presumed to be comorbid with online pornography.…”

“…Peer pressure has appeared as a predictor variable in a couple studies but has not been the focus of research. And, negative peer relationships have not been assessed in this research although they have been risk factors for other social media problems including cyberbullying (Field, 2019) and sexting (Field, 2019). Fear of missing out (FOMO) is a peerrelated factor that has been implicated in smartphone addiction studies (Field, 2020) but not in adolescent pornography research.…”

Adolescent Pornography: A Narrative Review

This narrative review is based on a literature search on PsycIN-FO and PubMed that involved entering the terms adolescent pornography. Following exclusion criteria, 31 papers could be classified as adolescent pornography studies including research on the prevalence, effects and risk factors for pornography. Most of the studies have been conducted in other countries where the prevalence of adolescent pornography has ranged from 8%-22% for habitual use. The effects of pornography have included legal problems, permissive attitudes and unrealistic expectations regarding sex as well as problematic behaviors including victimization and assault. The predictor or risk variables have included male gender, family dysfunction and sensation-seeking. Like other literature on adolescent problems, this research is limited by primarily deriving from self-report and parent report and by the absence of longitudinal data that might inform whether the data being reported are effects of or risk factors for adolescent pornography and the need for prevention/intervention research.
