Tactics to defend against the costs of a completed sexual assault include:
- aftermath concealment (e.g., camouflaging bruises, showering)
- seeking medical support (e.g., morning-after pills, mental health support)
- social withdrawal
- posttraumatic stress
When an artist was accused of sexual assault, people were more willing to censor or financially devalue the work than after accusations of murder, physical assault, vandalism, manslaughter, or sexual harassment.

Men underestimated women’s emotional distress after intimate-partner sexual assault, while women overestimated men’s distress & perceived risk; men, however, were relatively accurate about women’s fear & perceived risk.

Contrary to popular belief, evolutionary psychology hypotheses are testable and falsifiable.
This semester, I designed a capstone course to set undergraduate students up for success with (a) applying for graduate school during the current cycle or (b) transitioning into the workforce. In Week 1, I had students set goals and report their hopes for the course.
They leave the course with peer reviewed application materials for a job of their choice or a graduate program. Let me tell you: These young professionals are impressive folks!
This was a new course for our department, & I'm so thankful I was included in its development.
Many stated they were nervous about the mock interview day I planned in collaboration with @indianastate 's career center. Upon reflection, they appreciated the challenge and stated significant confidence gained in advocating for themselves in their career of interest.
Feel like helping students in my research methods course? Consider taking part in some of their surveys!
