Examining Graduate Student Drinking Patterns and Normative Misperceptions
OBJECTIVE: Approximately 85% of graduate students drink alcohol and maintain high risk for problematic use. However, graduate student misperceptions about drinking patterns remain under-researched. Thus, the current study aimed to 1) describe patterns of graduate student drinking, and 2) examine discrepancies of descriptive and injunctive norms. PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS: = 330, 55% female, mean age = 26.1) were recruited using social media and co…
The Associations Between Drinking Motives and Alcohol-Related Consequences in Graduate Students from Universities in the United States
The Influence of Health-Related Behavior Profiles on College Students’ Perceptions of Covid-19 Safety Measures
College students often engage in multiple health-related behaviors simultaneously which can lead to negative outcomes and further risky behaviors. During the COVID-19 pandemic, college students reported decreased condom use, increased solitary cannabis use, and increased alcohol consumption. This current study aimed to (1) identify profiles of health-related behaviors (i.e., alcohol consumption, cannabis use, and sexual behaviors), and (2) determ…
Examining Sexual Violence as a Predictor of Sexual Ambivalence
Sexual ambivalence can be defined as an experience of sexual behavior as both wanted and unwanted, to some degree, in a particular sexual situation. Despite ambivalence, individuals often decide to participate in these sexual experiences. There are several related and overlapping reasons as to why people ultimately decide to engage in sexual activity, including a history of engaging in a particular sexual behavior or being intimate with a prior p…
That’s Definitely a Red Flag”
Sexual violence (SV) victimization is a growing concern for men who have sex with men (MSM), given their high risk for SV relative to heterosexual peers. MSM frequently utilize dating and sexual networking (DSN) apps to meet potential partners, which also puts them at a higher risk of victimization. Understanding the connection between DSN apps and SV victimization for MSM can inform the development of prevention interventions. The aim of this st…
Young Mothers and Dating Violence
Purpose Young mothers are an understudied group at high risk for dating violence (DV) victimization and perpetration. Prior research has investigated depressive symptomatology as a predictor of DV in female adolescents and young women; however, minimal research focuses on young mothers, and the specific mechanisms influencing the relationship between depressive symptomatology and DV for young mothers remain elusive. Interpersonal competency is on…

Representations of romantic relationships, romantic experience, and sexual behavior in adolescence
Associations between romantic views and sexual behavior were examined in a community sample of 200 high school adolescents. This study incorporated interview and self‐report measures of romantic views, assessed multiple facets of sexual behavior (frequency, rapidity, onset, and risky behavior), and examined light nongenital, heavy nongenital, and genital sexual behaviors. Avoidant romantic views were related to later onset of genital sexual behav…
Attribution and Categorization Effects in the Representation of Gender Stereotypes
Social stereotypes involve judgments of how typical certain personality traits are of a group. According to the attribution hypothesis, judgments of trait typicality depend on the perceived prevalence of the trait in the target group. According to the categorization hypothesis, such judgments depend on the degree to which a trait is thought to be more or less prevalent in the target group than in a relevant comparison group. A study conducted wit…
