The new issue of the Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology examines the problem of accidental exposure to pornography and other sexual material on the 'Net. The issue is based on research conducted by the Children's Digital Media Center at UCLA.

Patricia Greenfield is director of the center and UCLA professor of psychology. She says it's difficult for teens to avoid highly sexualized material that is intended for an adult audience.
