Grazie ad Internet, la pornografia è accessibile dovunque, l’anonimato è garantito e si possono trovare diverse varietà di contenuto. Inoltre, molti siti offrono la possibilità di usufruire del materiale in maniera gratuita. Gli aspetti negativi e positivi della pornografia dipendono dall’uso che se ne fa. La pornografia ha subito un’evoluzione nel tempo e ora si trova a confrontarsi con il Covid-19; infatti anche i contenuti hanno subito un cambiamento. Affrontare l’uso problematico della pornografia on-line è un problema complesso: il modello biopsicosociale ci aiuta a tenere in considerazione i diversi aspetti della questione sia nella lettura che nel possibile intervento clinico.;

Keywords:pornografia; dipendenza; coronavirus porn; conseguenze; modello biopsicosociale.
