“…The mean study quality score across the 41 articles meeting inclusion criteria was 6.2 (eTables 1 and 2 in the Supplement). Two studies (4.9%) fell in the low-quality range, and 10 studies (24.4%) were in the moderate-quality range, with the remaining 29 studies (70.7%) in the high-quality range. The 2 studies deemed to have low methodological quality were removed from analyses.…”

Prevalence of Multiple Forms of Sexting Behavior Among Youth

IMPORTANCEThe existing literature on sexting among youth shows that sexting is a predictor of sexual behavior and may be associated with other health outcomes and risky behaviors. However, there remains a lack of consensus on the prevalence of sexting, which is needed to inform future research, intervention, and policy development.OBJECTIVE To provide a meta-analytic synthesis of studies examining the prevalence of multiple forms of sexting behavior, analyzed by age, sex, geography, and method of sexting.DATA SOURCES In an academic setting, electronic searches in MEDLINE, PsycINFO, EMBASE, and Web of Science were conducted for the period January 1990 to June 2016, yielding 1147 nonduplicate records.STUDY SELECTION Studies were included if participants were younger than 18 years and the prevalence of sexting explicit images, videos, or messages was reported.DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS Literature review and data extraction followed established PRISMA guidelines. Two independent reviewers extracted all relevant data. Random-effects meta-analyses were used to derive the mean prevalence rates. Thirty-nine studies met final inclusion criteria.MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Meta-analyses of the prevalence of sending, receiving, and forwarding without consent, as well as having one's sext forwarded without consent. RESULTS Among 39 included studies, there were 110 380 participants; the mean age was 15.16 years (age range, 11.9-17.0 years), and on average 47.2% were male. Studies were available for sending (n = 34), receiving (n = 20), forwarding without consent (n = 5), and having a sext forwarded without consent (n = 4). The mean prevalences for sending and receiving sexts were 14.8% (95% CI, 12.8%-16.8%) and 27.4% (95% CI, 23.1%-31.7%), respectively. Moderator analyses revealed that effect sizes varied as a function of child age (prevalence increased with age), year of data collection (prevalence increased over time), and sexting method (higher prevalence on mobile devices compared with computers). The prevalence of forwarding a sext without consent was 12.0% (95% CI, 8.4%-15.6%), and the prevalence of having a sext forwarded without consent was 8.4% (95% CI, 4.7%-12.0%). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCEThe prevalence of sexting has increased in recent years and increases as youth age. Further research focusing on nonconsensual sexting is necessary to appropriately target and inform intervention, education, and policy efforts.

“…Therefore it is suitable for relatively harsh working environments, and is a very practical, stable system. The general stability of G-M systems, similar to the one used to collect these data, with respect to temperature has been well studied [33][34][35][36][37][38][39]. These analyses determined that the stability of the G-M system was not likely to be a factor within the range of temperatures that were likely to be experienced in the OSURR laboratory (65-85 • F, though the actual temperature range experienced was likely much smaller).…”

Additional experimental evidence for a solar influence on nuclear decay rates

Additional experimental evidence is presented in support of the recent hypothesis that a possible solar influence could explain fluctuations observed in the measured decay rates of some isotopes. These data were obtained during routine weekly calibrations of an instrument used for radiological safety at The Ohio State University Research Reactor using 36 Cl. The detector system used was based on a Geiger-Müller gas detector, which is a robust detector system with very low susceptibility to environmental changes. A clear annual variation is evident in the data, with a maximum relative count rate observed in January/February, and a minimum relative count rate observed in July/August, for seven successive years from July 2005 to June 2011. This annual variation is not likely to have arisen from changes in the detector surroundings, as we show here.
