Abstract

ABSTRACT This study examined U.S. adolescents’ pornography consumption, pornography dependency, and belief in a variety of notions contradicted by basic sexological science. Data were from 595 youth aged 14–18 who participated in a population-based probability survey. Consistent with the sexual script acquisition, activation, application model (3AM) of sexual media socialization, adolescents who had viewed pornography were more likely to hold erroneous sexual beliefs than adolescents who had not viewed pornography. Also consistent with the 3AM, more frequent pornography consumption and higher levels of pornography dependency were independently associated with holding erroneous beliefs about sex among pornography consumers. Counter to theoretical expectations, frequency of pornography consumption did not interact with pornography dependency in the prediction of erroneous sexual beliefs.

色情与性科学:色情的使用和依赖在美国青少年性文盲中的作用
摘要:本研究调查了美国青少年的色情消费、色情依赖以及与性学基础科学相矛盾的各种观念的信仰。数据来自595名14-18岁的年轻人,他们参加了一项基于人群的概率调查。与性媒介社会化的性脚本获取、激活、应用模型(3AM)一致,看过色情内容的青少年比没有看过色情内容的青少年更容易持有错误的性信仰。同样与凌晨3点一致的是,更频繁的色情消费和更高程度的色情依赖与色情消费者对性的错误观念独立相关。与理论预期相反,色情消费频率与色情依赖在预测错误的性信仰方面没有相互作用。

期刊介绍: Communication Monographs, published in March, June, September & December, reports original, theoretically grounded research dealing with human symbolic exchange across the broad spectrum of interpersonal, group, organizational, cultural and mediated contexts in which such activities occur. The scholarship reflects diverse modes of inquiry and methodologies that bear on the ways in which communication is shaped and functions in human interaction. The journal endeavours to publish the highest quality communication social science manuscripts that are grounded theoretically. The manuscripts aim to expand, qualify or integrate existing theory or additionally advance new theory. The journal is not restricted to particular theoretical or methodological perspectives.
