越来越多的人成为社交媒体勒索的受害者。然而，很少有人尝试对这一主题进行综合研究。本研究试图通过调查目前对社交媒体上的勒索和敏感信息泄露的了解来解决这一差距。研究人员进行了两次快速评估，根据他们的发现，那些披露更多信息、更年轻、更愿意使用社交媒体制作和分发图片的女性更有可能成为社交媒体勒索的受害者。然而，担心隐私和成为社交媒体勒索受害者的可能性并不一定阻止敏感信息的披露。讨论了这些发现对干预措施和未来研究的意义。
Increasing numbers of people fall victim to blackmail on social media. Yet, there has been little attempt to synthesise research on this topic. This study seeks to address this gap by investigating what is currently known about blackmail and the disclosure of sensitive information on social media. Two rapid reviews were conducted and based on their findings those who disclose more information, are younger, female and willing to use social media to create and distribute images are more likely to fall victim to blackmail on social media. However, worry about privacy and the possibility of becoming a victim of blackmail on social media did not necessarily prevent the disclosure of sensitive information. The implications of these findings for interventions and future research are discussed.
