Researchers have found that teen girls who had experienced intimate partner violence or sexual abuse were three times more likely to engage in sexting, compared with other girls, while adolescent boys who had been sexually abused or victimized were two times more likely to sext than other boys. The findings, presented at the Pediatric Academic Societies annual meeting, also showed that girls, when compared with boys, were three times as likely to feel pressure to sext and twice as likely to struggle with moderate-to-severe depression.
