GALVESTON, Texas, July 3 (UPI) -- Nearly 30 percent of U.S. teens send nude pictures via e-mail or text -- a higher rate than previously thought, researchers said.
Lead author Jeff Temple, an assistant professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, and colleagues surveyed nearly 1,000 students at seven public high schools in southeastern Texas found 28 percent of adolescents have sent nude pictures of themselves through electronic means.
