Digital self-harm among spanish adolescents: analysis of prevalence and motivations. Digital self-harm consists of the use of information and communication
technologies, as Internet and mobile phone, to post, send or share content that is harmful or humiliating to oneself. The first objective
of this study was to examine the prevalence of different forms of digital self-harm among adolescents. The second objective was to analyze the
motivations to engage in digital self-harm using, to this end, a qualitative methodology of content analysis. The sample of this study was composed
of 794 participants (50.6% women) between 12 and 18 years (M = 14.29 y DT = 1.64). The 7.9% of the adolescents recognized having caused
some physical damage and posting it on the Internet and 3.8% having published the photos of the self-harm on the Internet. The main motivations
for engaging in digital self-harm were: 1) doing it as an expression of distress; 2) seeking relief; 3) looking for others’ attention and understanding;
4) see the reaction of others; 5) because they considered that it was funny; and 6) because others do it or it is “a fad”. The results suggest that we
are facing a worrying problem that needs to be better investigated.
