On the Use of Questionable Anti-Hazing Messaging
Journal of College and Character, v24 n3 p293-299 2023
Some collegiate anti-hazing programs are employing anti-hazing messaging that consists of exaggerated, misleading, or dubious claims. These claims are typically phrased in a way that is either a poor representation of the overall state of the research literature on hazing or oversells the findings from a single study. The failure to prioritize veracity in student messaging around hazing is problematic and needs to end.
