F*cking politeness” and “staying sexy” while doing it
Podcasts possess the unique affordance of “hyper-intimacy” that allows listeners to tap into personal experiences and emotional connections. Intersecting with social media spaces, these connections provide for the formation of online communities that encourage listeners to engage in discursive politics and to view their own experiences as part of a feminist politics. Piggybacking on the “Serial Effect”, the true crime podcast, My Favorite Murder,…

Motives, barriers, and ways of communicating in mother-daughter sexuality communication
In Tanzania, young women aged 15–24 are at high risk for HIV and nearly half (45%) of women experience pregnancy or childbirth before age 19. The HIV epidemic has motivated many parents to overcome cultural taboos and talk with their children about sexuality, but few studies in Tanzania have examined how young adults perceive these discussions. In-depth interviews with 31 Tanzanian college women (ages 18–25) reveal how they make sense of sexualit…
Sexual objectification in music videos and acceptance of potentially offensive sexual behaviors
Adolescents and Music Media
Using social cognitive theory and structural regression modeling, we examined pathways between early adolescents' music media consumption, involvement with music media, and 3 domains of self-concept (physical appearance, romantic appeal, and global self-worth; N=124). A mediational model was supported for 2 domains of self-concept. Music media consumption was positively associated with adolescents' involvement with media focusing on music persona…
Parental Knowledge and Its Sources
This study aims to examine patterns of parental knowledge and its sources (adolescent reports of disclosure, parental solicitation, and parental trust) among adolescents who differ as a function of family structure and race. Data are drawn from adolescents ( N = 2,374, M = 14 years, SD = 1.68) participating in a school-based study. Adolescent disclosure is a stronger predictor of parental knowledge in single-parent families and stepfamilies and i…
Sexual Identity Confusion and Problem Behaviors in Adolescents
Sexual identity confusion can add to the stress of adolescence. We used gender development, identity formation, and risk/resilience theories to study factors that protect sexually confused youth from risks (e.g., suicidal thoughts, substance use, delinquency). This exploratory study was based on a large, representative sample: 2.4% (n = 299) of students were confused about their sexual identity. From the original sample, a random subsample (n = 2…

Risk and Resiliency Factors Among Adolescents Who Experience Marital Transitions
Using a resiliency framework, we examined familial and extrafamilial factors associated with adolescent well-being in intact, blended, and divorced single-parent families. Hierarchical regression analyses were conducted using a large sample of 7th-, 9th-, and 11th-grade adolescents (N= 2,011) to test the moderating effect of peer support, school attachment, and neighbor support when parental support and monitoring were low. Significant two- and t…
Personal, Family, and School Factors Related to Adolescent Academic Performance
Compared to peers in intact families, adolescents in divorced families do not perform as well academically. Using an ecological framework, we ran hierarchical regressions to examine the effect of parental support and monitoring and school attachment on grade point average (GPA) in teens in intact (60%), single-divorced (20%), and blended (20%) families. In this study, 1925 students in grades 7 (45%), 9 (31%), and 11 (24%), with a mean age of 15 y…
Parenting Processes Related to Sexual Risk-Taking Behaviors of Adolescent Males and Females

Parenting behaviors considered were communication about sexual issues support and psychological and behavioral controls. The extent of sexual risk taking was assessed through the use of a composite measure of the number of sex partners the consistency of co…
