Only four percent of mobile phone-owning teens in that age group have sent sexually suggestive pictures of themselves, a practice known as "sexting," according to the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project.

The Pew survey found that girls and boys were equally as likely to have sent a suggestive picture to another person and older teenagers were more likely to have engaged in "sexting."

Amanda Lenhart, a senior research specialist at Pew and the author of the report, said sexually suggestive images have become a form of "relationship currency" for teens.

"These images are shared as a part of or instead of sexual activity, or as a way of starting or maintaining a relationship with a significant other," she said. "And they are also passed along to friends for their entertainment value, as a joke or for fun."

"The desire for risk-taking and sexual exploration during the teenage years combined with a constant connection via mobile devices creates a 'perfect storm' for sexting," said Lenhart.

"Teenagers have always grappled with issues around sex and relationships, but their coming-of-age mistakes and transgressions have never been so easily transmitted and archived for others to see," she added.

Among this group, Pew said 18 percent reporting receiving "sexts" compared with eight percent of teens on limited data plans and three percent of teens who pay per message.

Pew noted that a number of US states are grappling with how to deal with "sexting" among minors and some legislatures have stepped in to consider laws that would downgrade charges from felonies to misdemeanors.

据皮尤调查中心的“互联网和美国生活项目”的数据显示，在这一年龄段拥有手机的青少年中，有4%的人曾给他人发送过自己的带有性暗示的照片。这一行为被称为“发性短信（sexting）”。

皮尤调查中心的高级研究专家、该报告的撰写者阿曼达•伦哈特说，带有性暗示意味的照片已成为青少年之间的一种“关系媒介”。

她说：“这些图片作为性行为或者性行为中的一部分被分享，或者成为建立或维持与某人关系的一种方式。因为这些照片本身的‘娱乐价值’，它们还会被传给朋友，供人娱乐。”

伦哈特说：“青少年时期有冒险和性探索的欲望，加上移动设备可以保持实时联系，这些条件创造了互发性短信的‘完美风暴’。”

她说：“青少年总在有关性和情感的问题上挣扎，但他们青少年时期所犯的错误和越轨行为从未像现在这样如此容易地被传播并被保存下来供别人‘分享’。”
