Summary:

Researchers have examined the effects of media on adolescent sexuality and sexual health for more than two decades now. To provide an overview of the most recent findings, a review of research focused on teens, sex, and media (N = 210) published from 2013 to 2023 was conducted. Research focused on myriad topics, including sexual health, sexual violence, sexting, relationships, and gender identity. Results indicate that there was a decline in the number of articles published during the ten-year time span investigated. Studies most frequently used quantitative methods, specifically cross-sectional surveys. The authors encourage consideration for changes to structural barriers that may prohibit growth in the field and encourage researchers to consider ways in which scholarship can continue to advance this line of research.
