Guidelines have changed multiple times through the pandemic and bear important implications, for example, on if and/or how long a person must isolate or the extent to which intimate contact is possible if someone is asymptomatic. This information can also help providers correct virus misinformation and/or facilitate conversations about risk tolerance within partnerships. Romance scammers use websites, social media platforms, or online forums to pose as potential partners, using engaging profiles with attractive photos and creating a charming persona to gain the trust and affection of their targets. Once a connection is established, the scammer gradually builds an emotional bond with the victim, often through regular messaging, phone calls, or video chats. They may express love, affection, sexual attraction, and a desire for a future together. Meanwhile, their goal is to systematically exploit the victim financially or obtain personal information for illegal purposes.
During the pandemic, people’s lives dramatically changed and individuals had to cope with many stressors such as social isolation, recreative, physical, and social limitations, school closures, forced cohabitation, financial uncertainty, fear of contagion, and death. Such an emergency negatively affected individuals’ psychological health worldwide, triggering stressful emotional responses characterized by an increase in negative emotions such as anxiety, depression, and a decrease in positive emotions and life satisfaction (Li S. et al., 2020; Pera, 2020; Salari et al., 2020). For instance, recent research has shown that this situation induced a change in sleep-wake rhythms and a decrease in sleep quality (Cellini et al., 2020) and an increase in anxiety, depression, and harmful alcohol abuse (Ahmed et al., 2020; Cao et al., 2020; Pera, 2020).
AI sexting refers to the practice of engaging in intimate, sexual conversations and interactions with artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots or virtual companions. These AI-powered platforms allow users to explore their desires, roleplay, and have personalized sexting experiences in a digital environment. The concept may seem unfamiliar, but it has gained significant traction in recent years, with numerous platforms emerging to cater to this growing demand. In just a few years, technological changes have transformed how people interact and communicate with each other, in particular among so-called digital adolescents. The impact of technology on routine activities and mainstream culture has led to an increase in young peoples’ exposure to psychological and criminological risks. As a result of this new psychosocial trend, new educational challenges are appearing and it is becoming more necessary to react to these challenges on the basis of an adequate diagnosis of psychology and pedagogy relating to adolescents.
The present study examined the impact of measures imposed by the Luxembourgish government to fight the COVID-19 pandemic on self-reported sexual behaviors, substance use and mental health. Tim started his academic career at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah and received a bachelor’s degree in Marriage, Family, and Human Development with a minor in psychology. At Texas Tech University, he earned a master’s degree in the Department of Human Sciences as well as his doctoral degree in Human Development and Family Studies. His master’s thesis was a meta-analysis exploring gender differences with regard to cyber-aggressive behaviors. Further, he explored the atheoretical nature of cyberbully research in his comprehensive review.
Among these, 84% had had more than 3 sexual partners, 2.1% had had more than 10 sexual partners, and 2.4% took part in in-house orgies. With respect with those who adhered to COVID-19 distance restrictions, men who had casual sex were more likely to be single, young, distressed, and less educated. Furthermore, compared to those who used to have casual sex before the pandemic but stopped after the COVID-19 outbreak, MSM who continued to engage in casual sex were more likely to engage in sexual behaviors (having anal sex, using sex toys during intercourse, paying or being paid for sex) before the pandemic. Our data suggest that people who increased sexting (exchange of sex-content messages such as naked/semi-naked pictures, audios or videos with a partner) had higher odds of reporting sexual satisfaction. Sexting and cybersex might have acted as a tool for different sexual activities in a person or couple’s sexual repertoire [31]. For sexuality, 48% of respondents reported no changes in the number of sexual partners, 51.3% of respondents reported a decrease in the number of sexual partners, and only 0.9% of respondents reported an increase.
These changes may represent a stressful situation which may have been worsened by the COVID-19 outbreak, influencing the mental and sexual health of younger people (Shanahan et al., 2020). We observed that sexual minority individuals reported more frequent solo masturbation, sex with a casual partner, sexually explicit media, and cybersex as compared to heterosexual participants. The COVID-19 pandemic introduced considerable disruption around the world to people’s intimate and sexual lives. The purpose of this paper was to add to examine self-reported changes in solo and partnered sexual behaviors during COVID-19 among a large global sample of adults across 26 different low, middle, and high income countries.
Moreover, men who have sex with men (MSM) said they experienced less sexual activity during lockdown compared to 2019, while respondents who lived with their partner were more likely to report the same amount of sex or an increase in sex frequency during lockdown compared to 2019. A small percentage of participants (1.2%) said they participated in group sex, swinging, or threesomes since lockdown began, compared with 2019 (Coombe et al., 2021). A cross-sectional study conducted in Bangladesh, India, and Nepal from April 3 to April 15, 2020, found that 45% of participants thought that quarantine affected their sexual lives, even if no substantial differences in sexual activity were found between before and during lockdown (Arafat et al., 2020).
Substance use increase was related to a greater likelihood to have protected and unprotected sexual intercourse. Having more free time during the quarantine and daily routine disruption may have led to more time being spent in sexual activities and substance use. Moreover, it is possible that the increase in sexual activity and in substance use may represent coping strategies to face quarantine-related distress (Dariotis and Chen, 2020; Gillespie et al., 2021). One important piece in supporting sexuality during a pandemic is being able to inform individuals of the most up-to-date evidence-based behavior modifications when a person and/or their partner is exposed to the virus or has contracted the virus.

You moan and start to call his name “Jacaerys…! I cannot keep going! I need you, I need you to help me.” He rolls you over onto you back. The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper. In previous research on romance fraud, Wang and Topalli (2022) identify a theoretical framework for how these offenses are perpetrated, focusing on the psychological measures and techniques that fraudsters employ to extract financial gains from victims. The framework integrates three perspectives from three fields of study to do so. We argue that their impact on the fraud process is further enhanced by cyber-industrialization processes inherent in IMFI schemes (see Graph 1). Consent for publication was obtained from the participants as aggregated and unidentifiable data.
Some individuals in lockdown may have participated in sexual activity as a means of overcoming boredom or buffering adverse mental health outcomes like depression or anxiety (Gleason et al., 2023; Mollaioli et al., 2021). For some people, such proximity may have also increased partner closeness, which may have led to increased sexual activity (Gleason et al., 2023). For example, studies from China (Li W et al., 2020; Li et al., 2020), France (Landry et al., 2020), Italy (Mollaioli et al., 2021), Indonesia (Kusuma et al., 2021), and Poland (Fuchs et al., 2020) demonstrate a decrease in broadly defined partnered “sexual behavior” or “sexual intercourse” among adults during COVID-19. Nearly one-fifth of adults in the United Kingdom reported a decline in mutual masturbation and vaginal sex with both main and casual partners (Jacob et al., 2020). Adults in the United States comparably suggested decreased sex with casual partners (Gleason et al., 2021).
