This study examines, through a person-centered approach, the sociocognitive, emotional, and behavioral factors associated with NCS perpetration cross-sectionally and longitudinally. A total of 509 Spanish adolescents (49.5 % girls, average age = 14.98) participated at two time points: at baseline and six months later. At baseline, three risk profiles were identified: the “adjusted” profile (n = 433, 85 %): characterized by low levels of pro-sexual harassment attitudes and online sexual harassment perpetration, and high levels of emotions of moral responsibility; the “morally responsible, but aggressive” profile (n = 61, 12 %) characterized by moderate levels of pro-sexual harassment attitudes and emotions of moral responsibility, and moderate-high levels of online sexual harassment perpetration; and the “unemotional and aggressive” profile (n = 15, 3 %) characterized by moderate levels of pro-sexual harassment attitudes, high levels of online sexual harassment perpetration, and low levels of emotions of moral responsibility. Controlling for gender and age, belonging to the “morally responsible, but aggressive” and “unemotional and aggressive” profiles were associated with higher levels of NCS perpetration cross-sectionally (R2 = 0.257) and longitudinally (R2 = 0.171). Adolescents (mainly boys) who were involved in online sexual harassment behaviors, justifying them, and failing to feel any guilt in response to situations of this kind, were more likely to engage in NCS.

Non-consensual sharing of sexual content (NCS) represents a growing form of online sexual harassment, with significant prevalence among adolescents. This study examines, through a person-centered approach, the sociocognitive, emotional, and behavioral factors associated with NCS perpetration cross-sectionally and longitudinally. A total of 509 Spanish adolescents (49.5 % girls, average age = 14.98) participated at two time points: at baseline and six months later. At baseline, three risk profiles were identified: the “adjusted” profile (n = 433, 85 %): characterized by low levels of pro-sexual harassment attitudes and online sexual harassment perpetration, and high levels of emotions of moral responsibility; the “morally responsible, but aggressive” profile (n = 61, 12 %) characterized by moderate levels of pro-sexual harassment attitudes and emotions of moral responsibility, and moderate-high levels of online sexual harassment perpetration; and the “unemotional and aggressive” profile (n = 15, 3 %) characterized by moderate levels of pro-sexual harassment attitudes, high levels of online sexual harassment perpetration, and low levels of emotions of moral responsibility. Controlling for gender and age, belonging to the “morally responsible, but aggressive” and “unemotional and aggressive” profiles were associated with higher levels of NCS perpetration cross-sectionally (R2 = 0.257) and longitudinally (R2 = 0.171). Adolescents (mainly boys) who were involved in online sexual harassment behaviors, justifying them, and failing to feel any guilt in response to situations of this kind, were more likely to engage in NCS.
