This study compares these approaches in measuring forced penetration among college women.Methods: Data were collected from Fall 2021 to Fall 2023 as part of an experimental study examining barriers to sexual refusal assertiveness. A total of 199 college women ages 18-25 completed behavioral measures assessing unwanted sexual experiences.Results: Reports of forced penetration were approximately five times higher using a behaviorally-specific measure compared to a single gate question.Discussion: These findings highlight the need for universities to use behaviorally-specific assessments in campus climate surveys to more accurately capture the scope of sexual assault and adequately support prevention and survivor resources.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144649504","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}

We aimed to examine (1) how college students conceptualized unintentional tanning, (2) how they perceived outcomes of unintentional tanning, and (3) potentially predictive factors that can be tested in future large-scale studies. Participants: 30 Northeast US college students who reported any unintentional tanning in the past year. Methods: Data were collected using semi-structured interviews in November 2019 and analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: College students identified outdoor activities as a reason for recent unintentional tanning. A range of attitudes, positive and negative, were conveyed. Many discussed past sunburns and the circumstances surrounding them. The roles of culture and racial/ethnic background in tanning were important to many.

Participants: Undergraduates (n = 276) from 19 universities in Ontario, Canada. Methods: Mixed methods using demographic questions, three validated scales (measuring resilience, diversity, and inclusion), and interviews. Results: Significant positive correlations were found between resilience and experiences of diversity and feelings of inclusion. Significant associations were found between demographics indicative of equity-deserving group membership and these outcomes. Through interviews (n = 25), students described mostly positive experiences of diversity at university, with room for improvement regarding inclusion experiences.
