Research Methods and Statistics: Impact of Teenage Sexting on Children and Its Consequences
There have been research designs developed to study various young people's experiences on 'sexting'. Data, collection tools have also been selected for this purpose. A survey design has been adopted and a data collection tool chosen.
Justification of the study design
First, sampling is deeply regarded in conducting surveys, as it is essential in almost all behavioral research. The research also involves questionnaires whose responses being computer-entered, written or oral comprise the primary data. It is possible to epigrammatically summarize the views of all respondents by using the same phrasing and order of questions. The attitudes and other characteristics of a specific population can be deduced from the responses given to similar questions offered to a representative fraction drawn from that population. Moreover, researchers can compare the attitudes of different populations or look for changes in attitudes over time when similar questions are presented to the selected sample (Shaughnessy, Zechmeister & Zechmeister, 2012). Investigative approach for conducting research is immensely important. Methods that make surveys a strategy that is effective for the examination of people's cognition, feelings and opinions are broadly analyzed in the rest of this chapter.
2. Participants
The representatives will include two schools with different kinds of students from diverse social backgrounds and values hence enabling effective study: from North London and South London. The lowest populated ethnic group harbors more than half of students from both schools. Mixed socioeconomic status (SES) populations are considered in the two schools (Ringrose, Gill, Livingstone & Harvey, 2012).
Significant research has deduced that sexting is experienced differently among age groups ranging between ages 11 and 16. The comparatively low rates of sexting reported in recent data among the youngest group (11-12) (Ringrose et al., 2012; Martinez-Prather & Vandiver, 2014) led to distinct selection of students from year 8 (12-13) and year 10 (14-15) in order to spark an investigative sense of the differences expected to be perceived during this inevitable stage of social, psychological and physical growth.

Teenage Sexting and Its Consequences Problem Description In the last one decade, the advancement in technology has changed the mode of communication and interaction among teenagers; the increased reliance of teenagers on technology has been profusely documented.

Cyber Bullying One definition of Cyber bullying is that it is the employment of technology by a person to intimidate, upset, harass, demean and humiliate another person. Targets chosen by cyber bullies are no different from those picked by face-to-face bullies. These targets share characteristics such as being lonely or loners, vulnerable, socially uncomfortable, and hence mostly isolated. Some bullies choose to remain anonymous so as to escape accountability for their
social networking has in the last couple of years stirred a lot of debate among politician and scholars alike. The level of risks and benefits associated with social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and MySpace especially to children and teenagers has elicited a mixed reaction among the debating parties. In this paper we present a systematic analysis of the implications of social networking sites for both children and
