Resumo

It is considered that the widespread use of information technologies has led to an increase of sexual victimization of children. According to this opinion, not confirmed here, behaviours like online sexual solicitation of children, usually engaged by adults who are offline unknown by the victimized children, would be more common nowadays than they were in the recent past. In this paper we show the results of a quantitative research carried out with a sample of 489 secondary school students in Catalonia. As well as determining the child victimization rate through this type of conducts, the victim and offender profile is also established. Along with this, the dynamic of these processes, the victim-offender interaction and the degree of impact that these conducts have on victims and the way in which the situation is ended are analysed as well.
