Participants: Participants were from the Spring 2019 administration of the American College Health Association's National College Health Assessment-II. Methods: Multinomial logistic regression models and negative binomial regression models with and without interaction terms were used to explore if gender and sexual identity are related to academic performance, and if they are differentially related to academic performance when experiencing polyvictimization. Results: The effects of polyvictimization on academic performance are largely similar across all groups, but those identifying as trans/non-binary + and those identifying as a sexual minority had the greatest probability of experiencing academic performance issues. When the effects are different, they show a stronger association for students who are heterosexual and students who are cisgender. Conclusions: These similarities suggest that a need exists to target all students at risk for polyvictimization for intervention efforts.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142681889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: In-depth interviews were conducted via web-conferencing software from 2022-2023. Transcripts were coded and analyzed using an iterative inductive thematic analysis. Results: Six themes emerged. On-campus SRH resources are limited and colleges rely on community-based resources. College personnel view their role as a bridge for students to access resources - sometimes highlighting extensive partnerships with community organizations - and helping students overcome barriers to care. Differences in approaches to addressing sexual violence versus sexual health were revealed, and several characteristics of effective resources were illuminated. Conclusions: Community colleges work within logistic, budgetary, and cultural constraints and often struggle to provide students with comprehensive and accessible SRH resources.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142681873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Mean severity score for stressors were compared between level of study. Regression analyses evaluated the association of student specific stressors and overall stress. Results: Undergraduate students generally had higher levels of perceived stress compared to graduate students, notably in areas of academics, the learning environment, and campus culture. Multiple stressors were associated with an increase in stress; a prior mental health diagnosis was the main predictor in increased stress. Conclusions: Stressors differed between level of study.

Individuals reporting financial disruptions to diet were 4.32 times more likely to report resource hardships (p < 0.01).

Methods: Collegiate EMS personnel were trained to administer intramuscular injections and clinical oversight in campus vaccine clinics was maintained by Campus Health administration. Results: Collegiate EMS volunteers at the University of North Carolina provided staffing in a Campus Health vaccine clinic for a total of 55 days (91.67%) and represented, on average, 36.7% of the overall vaccine-administration staffing. During hours EMTs were present in the clinic, they represented on average, 84.0% staffing, during which time a total of 4013 vaccines were administered.
