Abstract

Sexting has gained importance in the digital era, and this research contributes to address its implications on the mental health and interpersonal relationships of young people, highlighting the need to educate about its risks and consequences. The study focused on analyzing the link between sexting and personality traits in psychology students at a university in Lima, Peru. Using a quantitative correlational-descriptive methodology, psychological traits associated with this practice were identified and differences were observed according to gender and age in the disposition towards sexting. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the phenomenon in the university context and provide relevant information for the design of educational and preventive strategies aimed at promoting a responsible and safe use of technology in this population.
