The UK Safer Internet Centre, working with Plymouth University, invite you to take part in a completely anonymous, very brief survey which asks questions about the way young people of your age might be affected by the sending and spreading of "nudes" - something called sexting. Some of these questions ask things that you might find uncomfortable to talk about and you do not have to respond to anything you don’t wish to. Most importantly, you should not leave any personal details in the survey

We hope this survey will help inform understanding about how these issues affect young people and will contribute to improving measures for protecting individuals from the harm that can occur if such file sharing goes wrong.

Any data collected in this survey will be used solely for this research project. Data is held entirely anonymously and there is no way to identify individuals. Individual responses will not be shared with teachers, parents or guardians. The data will not be accessed by anyone other than the research team at the Plymouth University
