Alcohol Consumption and Sexual-Consent Beliefs among Sorority Members
Adam Hardy; Steven Chesnut; Emily Lake
Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice, v61 n3 p309-318 2024
Previous studies have indicated that sorority members engage in high-risk alcohol consumption, putting them at increased risk of sexual victimization. In the current study, we examined the associations between sorority members' adherence to myths about sexual consent and assault related to alcohol misuse. Findings from the responses of 110 sorority members indicate that alcohol misuse is positively associated with personal belief alignment with common rape myths. We discuss implications for university administrators and college counselors.
