Download or read book Sexual Health and Black College Students written by Naomi M. Hall and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-06-16 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the various psychosocial, sociocultural, and contextual factors that affect the sexual health of Black students who attend Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and how this environment can help develop strategies to improve sexual health outcomes for its students. The college environment provides young people with a new sense of independence, self-determination, and peer pressure to engage in risky sexual behaviors, and research has shown that Black students at HBCUs bear a disproportionate burden of poorer sexual health outcomes than students at predominately white institutions (PWIs). Uniquely focusing on the sexual milieu of Black students, Hall-Byers explains why a better understanding of these settings is needed to guide successful interventions that benefit and support the sexual health of Black students. Chapters compare data and research on sexual health outcomes of young Black men and women in comparison to those at predominately white institutions, as well as looking at the role of HBCU campus contexts and cultures, the potential psychosocial and sociocultural influences, what culturally responsive approaches may look like, and recommendations on how HBCU campuses can increase positive sexual health, such as through access, collaborative efforts among administrative offices, and reallocating resources. Sexual Health and Black College Students aims to advance the translation of culturally grounded research into effective practice and is essential reading for researchers and practitioners in sex therapy, public health, and social science as well as for college health staff, including nurses, student affairs, and campus wellness centers.

Download or read book The Role of Heuristics in Sexual Decision Making Among College Students written by Lindsey L. Ross and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two goals in this study were to utilize vignettes to determine the role of the "known partner is a safe partner" heuristic and to examine the effect of vignette perspective on college students' decisions to engage in risky sexual behavior. The hypotheses were: (1) Participants would endorse a greater likelihood of engaging in sexual intercourse with a friend than an acquaintance, (2) participants would be more likely to indicate condom use with an acquaintance than a friend, (3) participants would rate the likelihood of sexual intercourse as more likely in the 3 rd person vignette than in the 2 nd person vignette, and (4) participants would rate the likelihood of condom use as higher for vignettes written in the 2nd person than in the 3rd person. ANCOVAs were used to test hypotheses controlling for virginity. Partner familiarity did not affect likelihood of engaging in sexual intercourse or condom use. This suggests that friend and acquaintance may not be considered different sex relationship types among college students. In terms of vignette perspective, men and women, indicated less intention to engage in sexual intercourse if the vignette was written in the second person perspective (M = 2.99, SD = 1.44), than in the third person (M = 3.97, SD = 0.85). A similar significant effect was found for intent to use condoms, (2nd person, M = 4.69, SD = 0.79; 3rd person, M = 3.43, SD = 0.75). The results support the use of downward social comparison in that students chose the socially appropriate behavior when the vignette referenced themselves versus an unknown other (i.e., Stephen and Laura). One way interventionists may approach college students' use of downward social comparison biases (i.e., the better than average effect) is to use it to their advantage when presenting sexual health information. This might include positively framing intervention messages to show the average college student that by using condoms every time or being selective about his or her sex partners, he or she is engaging in "above average" safer sex behavior.

Download or read book Sexual Decision Making in the Context of Hookup Culture written by Rachel Kalish and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation is a multi-method study of college students' sexual decision-making. It relies on interviews and focus groups to examine how college students make decisions within the context of the "hook-up culture" (Heldman and Wade 2010) prominent on American campuses. Patterns in the qualitative data are examined quantitatively using the Online College Social Life Survey. To understand how students make decisions in hookup culture, I examine their views of relationships, how they enact relationships, and the effects of hooking up on relationships. I find that students envision relationships in their future, and choose not to expend time on them during their early undergraduate studies. Counter to common stereotypes, both male and female students express experience with and desire for relationships, which often form after a period of hooking up, not traditional dating, yet high-status students are more likely to experience dates and relationships. Hooking up also impacts relationships, as students rely on gendered stereotypes to evaluate their peers' behaviors and motivations; females think that males want sex, and males expect females to want a relationship, which complicates things for students whose desires are counter to these stereotypes. I next examine decisions about choice of partner and sexual activity. Gender expectations shape these choices for undergraduates. Men make decisions based on the accolades they expect from peers, while women make decisions to shield them from being labeled a slut, evidence of the double standard. To men, a "good" partner is one who is highly desired by others; women consider a "good" partner someone who is trusting and non-coercive. These gendered stereotypes also factor into sexual behaviors, where women engage in sex acts to cement the bond with her partner, as evidence of the relational imperative. Young men are also affected, and engage in sex acts when they do not want to, but do so to mitigate against any threat to his masculinity. As a result of gender role expectations, much of the sex on college campuses may not be fully desired by the parties, but it is an agentic choice because of the social outcome it produces.

This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting new empirical evidence and employing fresh theoretical perspectives, this book sheds new light on the challenges that Black Students face from the time they apply to college through their lives on campus.The contributors make the case that the new generation of Black students differ in attitudes and backgrounds from earlier generations, and demonstrate the importance of understanding the diversity of Black identity.Successive chapters address the nature and importance of Black spirituality for reducing isolation and race-related stress, and as a source of meaning making; students’ college selection and decision process and the expectations it fosters; first-generation Black women’s motivations for attending college; the social-psychological determinants of academic achievement, and how resiliency can be developed and nurtured; institutional climate and the role of cultural centers; as well as identity development; and mentoring. The book includes a new research study of African American male undergraduates who identify as gay or bisexual; discusses the impact of student-to-student interactions in intellectual development and leadership building; describes the successful strategies used by historically Black institutions with at-risk men; considers the role of parents in Black male students’ lives, and the applicability of the “millennial” label to the new cohort of African American students.The book offers new insights and concrete recommendations for policies and practices to provide the social and academic support for African American students to persist and fully benefit from their collegiate experience. It will be of value to student affairs personnel and faculty; constitutes a textbook for courses on student populations and their development; and provides a springboard for future research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume focuses on different views of happiness and well-being, considering constructs like meaning and spirituality in addition to the more standard constructs of positive emotion and life satisfaction. A premise of the volume is that being happy consists of more than having the right things happen to us; it also depends on how we interpret those events as well as what we are trying to achieve. Such considerations suggest that cognitive-emotional factors should play a fairly pronounced role in how happy we are. The present volume pursues these themes in the context of 25 chapters organized into 5 sections. The first section centers on cognitive variables such as attention and executive function, in addition to mindfulness. The second section considers important sources of positive cognition such as savoring and optimism and the third section focuses on self-regulatory contributions to well-being. Finally, social processes are covered in a fourth section and meaning-related processes are covered in the fifth. What results is a rich and diverse volume centering on the ways in which our minds can help or hinder our aspirations for happiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As health care is moving toward a team effort with patients as partners, this book provides guidance on the optimized use of health information and supporting technologies, and how people think and make decisions that affect their health and wellbeing. It focuses on investigations of how general public understand health information, assess risky behaviors, make healthcare decisions, and how they use health information technologies. e-health technologies have opened up new horizons for promoting increased self-reliance in patients. Although information technologies are now in widespread use, there is often a disparity between the scientific and technological knowledge underlying health care practices and the cultural beliefs, mental models, and cognitive representations of illness and disease. Misconceptions based on inaccurate perceptions and mental models, and flawed prior beliefs could lead to miscommunication as well as to erroneous decisions about individuals’ own health or the health of their family members. Cognitive Informatics in Health and Biomedicine: Understanding and Modeling Health Behaviors presents state of the art research in cognitive informatics for assessing the impact of patient behaviour. It is designed to assist all involved at the intersection of the health care institution and the patient and covers contributions from recognized researchers and leaders in the field.
