Abstract

The aim of this research was to evaluate pornography addiction in a sample of 405 adolescents in the city of Kinshasa, as well as its explanatory factors. A pornography addiction assessment test was administered to the adolescents targeted in the study. After correction of this test, it was found that 123 subjects (30.4%) out of the 405 surveyed had developed pornography addiction. What's more, only the district of residence variable influenced pornography addiction. Specifically, there are more adolescent pornography addicts residing in the Lukunga district compared to other districts in the city of Kinshasa.
