Abstract
Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine the coercive and problematic use of sexual online material related to the sexual behavior of university students in two cities in Northern Mexico. The design that was applied to this study was a descriptive correlational method on 435 students with an age range of 18–29 years. They were selected by systematic sampling from two universities, one public and one private. We applied four instruments with acceptable psychometric characteristics. Spearman correlations and regression models were used. As a result, online streaming of videos related to fetishes, such as the incorporation of clothing, tools, or objects, used to cause arousal (β = .25, p < .001) and the ideation of what is explored online (β = .38, p < .001) demonstraded a significant relation on the sexual behavior of students (R2 = .54; F [5, 434] = 35,519, p < .001). We suggest online interventions for children, adolescents, youth and parents to prevent sexual risks.
期刊介绍:
Now being understood and treated as a significant and widespread disorder, sexual addiction and compulsivity is an enormously complex problem that requires a multidisciplinary approach from psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, family therapists, pastoral counselors, and law enforcement personnel. The first and only journal devoted to topics pertaining to this growing illness, Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity: The Journal of Treatment and Prevention is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for research and clinical practice. As the source for information in this expanding new field, this journal will give practicing clinicians useful and innovative strategies for intervention and treatment from the necessary multidisciplinary perspective.
