The Role of Social Conservatism and Family Vaues Regarding the Use of Pornography Among Romanians: A Moderated Mediation Model.

Objective: To develop the Pornography Problems Due to Moral Incongruence model by exploring social conservatism and family values regarding the use of pornography (FVUP). Method: 501 Romanian individuals, aged 18–76 (M = 22.77, SD = 9.29), 71.9% females. Results: Social conservatism and FVUP provide a significant additional explanatory power, explaining 22.9% of the variance in the initial model. Moreover, social conservatism mediated the relationship between FVUP and moral disapproval of pornography, while religiosity moderated the relationships between FVUP and moral disapproval of pornography and between FVUP and social conservatism. Conclusion: Social conservatism and FVUP significantly influence moral disapproval of pornography. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
