APPENDIX C THREAT ASSESSMENT: ACADEMIC RESEARCH It is important to note that the inclusion of any study or research project in this Report is notintended to convey support for the findings of any of such study or research project.The Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University, Enhancing Child Safety& Online Technologies: Final Report of the Internet Safety Technical Task Force to theMulti-State Working Group on Social Networking of State Attorneys General of the UnitedStates, December 31, 2008,http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/sites/cyber.law.harvard.edu/files/ISTTF_Final_Report­Executive_Summary.pdfThe following excerpts are from the main text of the study and Appendix C: Research AdvisoryBoard Literature Review of the study.Selected Quotes from the Main Text:From the Harvard Study: “More problematically, media coverage has regularlymischaracterized research in this area, thus contributing to inaccurate perceptions of whatrisks youth face. This problem was most visible in the public coverage of the OnlineVictimization studies done at the Crimes Against Children’s Research Center (Finkelhor etal. 2000; Wolak et al. 2006). These reports are frequently referenced to highlight that one infive or one in seven minors are sexually solicited online. Without context, this citationimplies massive solicitation of minors by older adults. As discussed below, other peers andyoung adults account for 90%-94% of solicitations in which approximate age is known(Finkelhor et al. 2000; Wolak et al. 2006). Also, many acts of solicitation online areharassing or teasing communications that are not designed to seduce youth into offline sexualencounters; 69% of solicitations involve no attempt at offline contact (Wolak et al. 2006).Misperception of these findings perpetuates myths that distract the public from solving theactual problems youth face.” pp. 13-14.* * *“Although numerous studies have examined sexual solicitation, three national datasetsprovide the most statistically valid findings— N-JOV, YISS-1, and YISS-2— and areregularly analyzed in articles by Wolak, Finkelhor, Ybarra, and Mitchell. Findings inregional studies (e.g., McQuade and Sampat 2008; Rosen et al. 2008) affirm their trends.“The percentages of youth who receive sexual solicitations online have declined from 19% in2000 to 13% in 2006 and most recipients (81%) are between 14–17 years of age (Finkelhor etal. 2000; Wolak et al. 2006). For comparison, a regional study in Los Angeles found that14% of teens reported receiving unwanted messages with sexual innuendos or links onMySpace (Rosen et al. 2008) and a study in upstate New York found that 2% of fourththrough sixth graders were asked about their bodies, and 11% of seventh through ninthgraders and 23% of tenth through twelfth graders have been asked sexual questions onlineC-1
