Young people’s first encounter with sex : A qualitative study on counselors view on young people’s sexuality in a digitalized world (English)
Abstract [en]

Today’s society is increasingly characterized by a shift in both communication and the provision of services and information to take place digitally. The largest users of digital platforms are young people, where social media and other digital applications are more the rule than the exception in their everyday lives. Despite the increase in digital usage, particularly among young people, there is scant research on how this affects them regarding their development. We have particularly focused on how the development of sexuality among young people is influenced, with social media and easily accessible online pornography as a factor to specifically consider. From the perspective of social work, we have turned to those who, in their work, encounter young people regarding topics such as sexuality, relationships and consent. Specifically, we have interviewed counselors within schools and youth centers to get an idea of how they perceive this and what challenges they might face in their work with youth sexuality in a digital context. A conclusion we can make is that the lack of knowledge about how young people are affected by what they encounter online contributes to difficulties in designing interventions of quality for support and treatment. How the presence of young people in digital arenas affects the development of their sexuality and ability to have healthy relationships can therefore be considered a gap of knowledge that needs to be filled.
