Participants: Participants included 602 undergraduates from a public university in the southeastern United States (MAge=18.51, SD = 0.81, 80.2% Female, 79.9% White Non-Hispanic). Methods: Participants completed an anonymous, online survey which included various SUD stigma, familiarity, and knowledge measures. Results: Results showed negative emotions toward individuals who have SUDs was inversely correlated with knowledge level. In addition, desired social distance from individuals with SUDs was inversely related to level of familiarity. There was no significant interaction between knowledge and familiarity. Conclusion: The findings have implications for college programming aimed at reducing stigma toward individuals with SUDs.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143364740","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}

Despite past-month sexual risk behavior (48% without barrier, 31% under influence of alcohol/drugs, 12% without querying STI status), only 23% endorsed past-year STI testing. Drinking students were more likely than non-drinking peers to endorse all sexual risk behaviors. T1 drinking was associated with T2 sex, sex under the influence of alcohol/drugs, and unprotected sex.Conclusions: College drinking predicted short-term sexual risk behaviors at this rural institution, suggesting potential unique risk mechanisms.

Method: Quantitative and qualitative data examined SA prevalence, themes of disclosure, and knowledge of university resources. Results: Although participants indicated potential utilization of university resources in the event of SA, most survivors reported disclosing to family and friends, while those who had not experienced SA indicated that they would disclose to police or campus programs. Reasons for non-disclosure to university resources among SA survivors included minimization of the SA experience and discomfort with the reporting process.

Factors that buffer that positive relationship (e.g., optimism and emergency preparedness self-efficacy or EPSE) are also understudied. Thus, we examined the relationship between the perceived threat of disasters and COVID-19-related anxiety, as well as potential moderating factors of this relationship, including optimism and EPSE. Participants and methods: Participants were a representative sample of U.S. college students (N = 392) recruited through Prolific.co who completed measures in an online Qualtrics survey. Results: Both optimism and EPSE were significant moderators of the relationship between perceived threat and symptoms of anxiety related to COVID-19. When both moderators were included in a double moderation model analysis, only EPSE remained a significant moderator. Conclusions: These findings reflect the importance of cultivating protective psychological resources to protect college students' well-being during disasters.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143255546","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}

Unhealthy coping moderated relations between COVID-19 worry and sleep-related impairment, such that the relationship between COVID-19 worry and sleep-related impairment was stronger among students reporting average (at the mean) to high (+1 SD) unhealthy coping scores.
