  • The Lived Experiences of Risk

    Aria Wiseblatt, Aria F Wiseblatt et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Sexual Abuse2026

    Sexual assault (SA) is a significant problem among college women. Black college women engage in some of the most common SA risk behaviors (e.g. alcohol use, hookups) less frequently than White women yet experience SA at similar rates. A better understanding of Black college women’s SA risk is needed. This three-phase (P1-P3) study (P1 and P2 focus groups and P3 feedback interviews), was designed to address this objective. P1 (N = 4) was conducted…

    Sexual assault (SA) remains a significant public health issue, and there is growing interest in SA prevention approaches.

    The process of identity formation is complex for many; however, for immigrant populations experiencing acculturation and acculturative stress, the process may be particularly difficult. The current study examined the impact of immigration, acculturation, social support, and acculturative stress on identity formation and identity distress during the added stress of COVID-19. Late-adolescent college students from large enrollment psychology courses…

  • Dissociation, identity distress and rejection sensitivity in adult adoptees

    Open AccessLee J McLamb, Bailey Wagaman et al.ARTICLEAdoption & Fostering2022Cited by: 2References: 3

    This US study examined dissociation, rejection sensitivity and identity distress among adults who experienced adoption as a child and the relationship between these factors. Further, groups of adoptees recruited through Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) and social media were compared to assess whether these two recruitment methods achieve similar results. Adopted adults ( n = 389) and non-adopted adults ( n = 151) completed an online survey. Signifi…
