  • Childhood Sexual Abuse, Adolescent-Adult Sexual Assault, and Revictimization

    Open Access•Sharon S Wang, Jessica A Blayney et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Child Sexual Abuse•2026

    Women with a history of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and/or adolescent-adult sexual assault (ASA) can have different trauma-related symptom presentations in early adulthood, but the role of coping resources in mitigating victimization-related distress is understudied. Thus, the present study examined women with sexual victimization histories by developmental period (CSA-only, ASA-only, or CSA + ASA) and the role that mindfulness and emotion regul…

A total of 106 men (~25%) reported engaging in CUR over the 32-day period. Multilevel models using a negative binomial distribution identified between-person global alcohol expectancies for sexual ri…

  • The Roles of Sexual Relationship Power and Sexual Assertiveness for Condom Use in the Association Between Sexual Victimization History and Condom Use Frequency

    Open Access•Anna K Peddle, Anna Peddle et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology of Women Quarterly•2025•References: 8

    Women who have experienced childhood sexual abuse (CSA) or adolescent/adult sexual assault (ASA) are at a heightened risk of acquiring sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and demonstrate lower rates of condom use than women who have not had these victimization experiences. Two understudied factors that may help explain these associations are sexual relationship power and sexual assertiveness for condom use. In this secondary data analysis stud…

  • Discordant and Concordant Heavy Drinking and Other Drug Use Patterns and Intimate Partner Violence Perpetration

    Open Access•Julia F Hammett, Cynthia A Stappenbeck et al.•ARTICLE•Aggressive Behavior•2025•References: 29

    Heavy drinking couples in which one (i.e., discordant heavy drinking) or both (i.e., concordant heavy drinking) partners drink alcohol heavily are at greater risk for intimate partner violence (IPV) than couples in which neither partner drinks heavily (i.e., concordant nonheavy drinking). Additionally, the risk for IPV is particularly high among discordant as compared to concordant heavy drinking couples. Despite the fact that individuals who dri…

    Julia F Hammett, Weiqi Chen et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Sex Research•2024•Cited by: 2

    Sexual aggression (SA) is a significant public health problem, with the majority of SA involving alcohol. The present study examined associations between alcohol expectancies for sexual enhancement, event-level alcohol use, and the likelihood of SA perpetration. Young, adult non-problem drinking men participated in a laboratory session and completed a background survey that included measures of alcohol expectancies. Subsequently, men completed 6-…

  • Beyond Force, Incapacitation, or Verbal Coercion

    Anna E Jaffe, Rebecca Howard et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Sex Research•2024•References: 3

    To date, most sexual assault research has focused on specific perpetrator tactics, including verbal coercion, substance-related incapacitation, and force. Responding to recent calls to assess a broader range of nonconsensual sexual experiences, we examined the occurrence and outcomes of sexual assault without warning - when a perpetrator "just does" a behavior without giving a chance to say "no." Participants were 850 college students (Mage = 19.…

  • Emotion Regulation and Intimate Partner Violence Perpetration in Undergraduate Samples

    Open Access•Elizabeth C Neilson, Natasha K Gulati et al.•ARTICLE•Trauma Violence & Abuse•2023

    Intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration increases throughout young adulthood and is particularly widespread among college students, resulting in mental health and academic consequences. Deficits in emotion regulation (ER) are an important factor associated with IPV perpetration; the developmental tasks and challenges associated with college, including relationship stressors and hazardous alcohol use, implicate ER as a particularly relevant r…

  • Dyadic effects of minority stress and problematic alcohol use on sexual intimate partner violence in same sex couples

    Open Access•Dominic J Parrott, Konrad Bresin et al.•ARTICLE•Aggressive Behavior•2023•References: 45

    Little is known about the factors that facilitate the perpetration of sexual violence within the context of same‐sex romantic relationships (sexual intimate partner violence perpetration [S‐IPV]). The present study sought to identify the effects of external and internal minority stress and problematic drinking on perpetration of S‐IPV within a dyadic framework. A community‐based sample of 137 sexual and gender minority (SGM) couples ( N = 274; 59…

  • Sexual Decision Making When Intoxicated

    Anna E Jaffe, Jessica A Blayney et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Sex Research•2023•References: 4

    Young adult women report high condom use intentions, but inconsistent condom use. Cognitive appraisals during sexual encounters are important determinants of condom use decisions, but a nuanced understanding of what cognitions emerge during women's "hot states" (e.g., sexual arousal, alcohol intoxication) remains lacking. To address this gap, we examined women's heat of the moment cognitions in their own words using mixed methods. Young adult wom…

  • An event-level evaluation of women’s self-medicated drinking

    Open Access•Cynthia A Stappenbeck, Anna E Jaffe et al.•ARTICLE•Psychological Trauma Theory…•2022

    Alcohol interventions that provide adaptive regulatory strategies are needed for women who experience increased negative or positive affect, with a particular focus on self-medication for young women with more severe SA histories. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)

  • Covid Stress, socioeconomic deprivation, and intimate partner aggression during the Covid-19 pandemic

    Open Access•Julia F Hammett, Miklos B Halmos et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2022

    The present analyses implicate COVID-19 stress as a critical correlate of IPA and show that the association between this stress and physical IPA perpetration and psychological IPA victimization may be particularly salient among individuals who live in areas of lower socioeconomic deprivation. Furthermore, our results clearly pinpoint the detrimental effects of socioeconomic deprivation more broadly, showing that individuals who live in more depri…

  • The effect of state, trait, and situational factors on young men’s coercive condom use resistance

    Open Access•Mitchell Kirwan, Kelly Cue Davis et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology of Men & Masculinity•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 5

    Coercive Condom Use Resistance (CUR) is a significant problem, associated with increases in STIs, unplanned pregnancy, feelings of betrayal, and a loss of sexual autonomy. Furthermore, young men are much more likely to perpetrate coercive CUR than young women. Thus, the present study sought to examine the past experiences, trait characteristics, and state emotions which may precede coercive CUR perpetration intentions, including alcohol intoxicat…
