This document presents a study on college students' knowledge and attitudes toward nonconsensual condom removal, also known as "stealthing". The study used focus groups and surveys to collect qualitative and quantitative data. Key findings included that most students were unaware of stealthing, but viewed it negatively once informed. Students saw stealthing as a violation of consent and trust. The study implications call for further research on stealthing prevalence and legal implications, as well as education on comprehensive consent definitions on college campuses.
The Undergraduate Student Government at Ohio State University formed a Sexual Violence Task Force to examine the issue of sexual violence on campus. The Task Force surveyed over 600 students and found high rates of sexual violence, with over a third of respondents reporting unwanted sexual contact. They also found low reporting rates and a lack of awareness of university resources. The report provides recommendations in three key areas: improving campus climate and culture through a new center for support and an affirmative consent policy, increasing prevention through mandatory training, and enhancing support for victims. The Task Force benchmarked other universities and found Ohio State has relatively low staffing levels dedicated to sexual violence education and support.
Here is the presentation that I did for the Rosa Parks lecture at UNLV on Feb. 10, 2010. The presentation is entitled, "Reproductive Health, Social Determinants, Health Disparities, and Public Policy: Let\'s Come Up with Solutions."

This document summarizes a focus group study on college students' perceptions of risky social media behaviors. 10 female students at Quinnipiac University participated in a focus group. The focus group aimed to define risky social media behaviors, create awareness of such behaviors, and influence participants' future online actions. Key themes that emerged included the culture of social media use, potential risks, and prevention. The focus group employed questionnaires, discussion questions, and analyzed responses to understand students' views on topics like posting intoxicated photos or cyberbullying. Both strengths and weaknesses of the focus group method were discussed.
The document summarizes using online focus groups to develop a text-message based HIV prevention program for adolescent men who have sex with men (MSM) ages 14-18. The researchers conducted two online focus groups with a total of 75 participants. Key findings from the focus groups included:
- Participants expressed a lack of education about healthy sexuality and relationships.
- Sexually abstinent participants wanted messages that positively reinforced their decision to wait for sex.
- Sexually active participants reported barriers to condom use like embarrassment purchasing them and lack of education on proper use.
- Both groups expressed interest in content addressing developing relationships and accessing resources.
This document summarizes the results of a survey conducted by students to assess bystander awareness and intervention regarding sexual assault on Auburn University's campus. The survey addressed types of assault, personal experience with assault, likelihood of reporting, and knowledge of campus services. Most respondents would report witnessing rape. About half knew someone assaulted. Respondents accurately estimated the percentage of college students assaulted. Awareness of support services varied. Respondents were likely to report to friends or if they witnessed an assault. Views differed on issues like victim experience levels and assault claims. Unknowingly consuming drugs/alcohol was deemed the most likely assault scenario.
This study investigated whether a defendant's gender and sexual orientation would influence juror bias in a hypothetical criminal case. Participants read a case summary and rated the likelihood of guilt for defendants that were described as either a gay male, straight male, lesbian, or straight female. Participants also completed questionnaires measuring their personality traits and level of self-actualization. The results found that the sexual orientation of the defendant did influence guilt ratings, with non-heterosexual defendants rated as more guilty. However, the personality variables did not interact with the trial conditions. Overall, the study suggests that juror bias based on a defendant's sexual orientation can influence verdict decisions.

The Self Related to Criminal Behavior Rough Draft KATKim Taylor
This document summarizes a research paper on the relationship between self-esteem and criminal behavior. The study examined 100 high school students (75 male, 25 female) who reported engaging in aggression in the past year. It found that those with low self-esteem were more likely to display aggression and engage in criminal acts, especially males who reported physical aggression. Recommendations included counseling, workshops, and extracurricular activities to improve self-esteem and reduce criminal behavior in minors.
1) Adolescent substance abuse is common, with half of high school seniors reporting illicit drug use. Alcohol and marijuana are the most commonly abused substances.
2) Risk factors for adolescent substance abuse include early experimentation with drugs and alcohol, affiliation with deviant peers, poor family and community environments, and personality traits like novelty seeking and low harm avoidance.
3) Protective factors against substance abuse include strong family support systems, cultural values like family obligation, and positive traits like self-strength and aversion to parental substance abuse. Having these social and emotional supports can compensate for risks like substance-abusing parents.
Filipinos getting infected with HIV-AIDS continued to balloon notwithstanding the intervention through comprehensive prevention, dissemination and control programs. In Eastern Visayas there were 69 cases coming from most risk population primarily Men Having Sex with Men (MSM) either homosexual, heterosexual and bisexual modes of transmissions. Bearing this epidemic, sexual networking, using the internet for sex served as cruising sites for casual sex and promiscuity maybe accounted for this surge. This study made use of descriptive cross sectional method with 214 active users from different social sites using time- location sampling through interviews, group discussions and questionnaires. Results showed that most of the respondents joined the site for sex and had an average of 1-5 different sexual intercourse for the past three months. Sexual practices were oral, anal and oral-anal. Respondents were aware on the different modes of transmission but fully unaware of existing services of the DOH and were willing to be screened for HIV.
This document discusses the issue of child cyber pornography as a "wicked problem". It notes that the problem is growing due to increased internet usage, and many of the perpetrators are people in positions of authority like teachers or police officers. It explores how psychology can help understand the motivations and mindsets of both offenders and law enforcement. While laws aim to punish this crime, it remains difficult to monitor given billions of internet users. The document calls for more research on predicting and preventing these crimes from a young age by identifying potential mental illnesses or defects in infants through medical testing.
1) The document discusses media researcher Shanee Simpson's article for a Media Student magazine on how audiences respond to media like music videos and horror films.
2) It covers audience theory, effects debates, passive vs active consumption, and different types of audience responses.
3) Shanee summarizes debates around the positive and negative impacts of media on youth, and whether horror films negatively affect teenagers. Research shows films may influence children more due to an inability to distinguish fantasy from reality.
4) Shanee conducted surveys that found horror films have no long-lasting effects on teenagers or adults, though some children reported short-term impacts like nightmares. Music videos were found to potentially influence teenagers' behaviors.
This document summarizes research from focus groups exploring using focus groups as a healthy sexuality intervention for gay, bisexual, and queer adolescent males. Four online focus groups over 3 days provided social support and information to increase participants' motivation and skills. Sexually inexperienced participants reported the focus groups helped them feel less alone and reinforced waiting for the right person for sex. Sexually experienced participants said the groups reinforced safe sex practices and made them more open to discussing sexuality. Overall, the focus groups appeared to have a positive effect and further research is warranted to quantify their influence on healthy sexual behaviors.

The Dynamics of Social Media Responses
Moral judgment is commonly swayed by irrelevant factors, whereby people tend to arrive at the judgment(s) about different actions as being wrong if they are predisposed to fury prior to the making of moral judgment. On the contrary, the bias for positive emotions makes unacceptable actions at times appear acceptable. In the context, dilemmas that came before the prevalent one influence the permissibility of the unwarranted actions (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). The violation of rationality norms occurs when people allow social consensus to take precedence to facts (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). In like manner, accepting conformity creates room for error and confusion to spread reign a group, whereas the making of independent decisions as well as resistance to conform tends to be socially constructive (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). In this case, resistance to conformity may be considered both moral and rational, as it is commonplace for people’s behaviors to be frequently judged based on whether the persons involved relied on their moral principles or they simply complied. Conformity is, however, considered illogical if a person holds the belief that social consensus should be awarded less weight in the decision in comparison to one’s beliefs and values (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). In a nutshell, conformity can possibly be an outcome of a rational process, whereby the concerned people chose to follow their beliefs and the truth at the expense of a lie.
The seeking of knowledge continuously takes place on various social media platforms, whereby the determinants of the messages obtained by an individual are the pages followed and the friends that one has. Unfortunately, the platforms are responsible for the spread of fake news, whereby some players hide their identities and post content to reinforce their positions (Perfumi et al., 2019). Notably, social norms exist on the platforms but people’s perception of the values vary for a number of reasons, which include platform type, anonymity, and the nature of relationships between friends (Perfumi et al., 2019). Moreover, conformity to social norms in the context of social platforms varies significantly from that of face to face, while social influence therein may be categorized into norms-oriented social influence and information-oriented one. Remarkably, it would be necessary to create a distinction between the two aspects. The implication is that online users who feel that they are anonymous may experience the temptation to disregard the opinions that they could be exposed to. The other implication may be the motive of the users of online platforms. Where the intention is communication at the expense of conformity to social norms, the communicators tend to disregard the norms completely, while they ma ...

Cyber Security Gone too far

Excelsior College
BNS301 National Security Ethics and Diversity
How far is it too far when protecting the peoples' rights in cyberspace and its national security? In an ever-evolving cyber world, many states tend to infringe on citizens' cyber information privacy for their own accord. Sometimes governments overstep boundaries and bend the rules to protect the land and overstep the peoples' privacy to enforce rules and regulations. My final paper will analyze rules and regulations within the Cybersecurity realm within the United States. The National Security Strategy is a good guideline on the laws and what the U.S is looking to implement soon. This paper intends not to make conspiracy theories to show facts and existing laws and regulations on how the citizens' privacy has no longer been protected and some examples of historical events. (Snowden) had an ethical dilemma when he made his decisions. My paper will include my opinions and the bullet points below to construct a good argument on how the U.S can protect its citizens' privacy.
· National Security Strategy
· Cyber laws within the United States
· Privacy Laws
· Phone settings
· Phone Companies and laws sharing information to the government
· Internal agencies search and espionage laws

Part 1
One experiment that always stands out in my mind in terms of ethics is Milgram’s experience on obedience and authority. Perhaps this draw comes from the almost militant quality this experiment has in the regards to how far the human psyche can be pushed in response to authoritative prompting. Another fascination I have in regards to this experiment is that Milgram sought out to test how far someone could be pushed past their own personal coconscious beliefs when prompted by an authority figure in an effort to bring some insight to the German soldiers who stated they were just following orders during the horrific events that took place during WWII. In doing so he pushed volunteers from differing backgrounds and professions to administer increasing levels of shock to another human being (or so they thought) as directed by an experiment authority figure. While no individual was actually shocked during this experiment, there was psychological harm done to those who were being directed to administer the shock. Many of these individuals had saw some of their darker potentials to inflict harm on another human being (something that they did not think they were capable of prior to this experiment) and suffered short- and long-term psychological distress as a result. While I do believe there is undeniable insight gained from this experiment and the potential we all have in respect to how far we may go when we believe or trust the person of authority above us, I can see that it came with a cost. Looking back, I think that perhaps the participants could have been better prepared by informing them that they may be put in “high-stress” situations which may affect them after the testing has been completed. I believe an immediate de-briefing could have been done to allow the participants to be fully aware that no individuals were harmed during the testing and have proper support on hand to help resolve any traumatic activations that may have taken place during the experiment, as well as long term access to these professionals should they have further questions or need further support. If I were the researcher this is the route I would have taken to ensure first and foremost my volunteer participants ar3e taken care of to the best of my ability.
Part 2
This course has been a great expansion of my knowledge in regards to the influences that social culture has on the field of psychology. One element that stands out to me is the influence of pop culture and marketing persuasion on our culture. Although the documentary video we had watched covering this topic was quite dated, it was eye opening to see how far the reaches of pop culture had on the way we act and interact within our communities on a pretty deep level. It was also startling to see how far some of these major companies were willing to go to capture the next “big thing” .

This document summarizes the ethical considerations and protocols for a text messaging intervention program for gay, bisexual, and queer teen men. It discusses obtaining informed assent while ensuring safety, verifying identities during online recruitment, and monitoring safe usage of program features. Key components included a waiver of parental permission, self-safety assessments, confirming identifying details over the phone, establishing codes of conduct, and constant monitoring of participant interactions. Some youth declined or adjusted aspects of their participation based on potential risks identified during screening.
The document discusses ethics challenges in new prevention technologies (NPT) research. It covers several topics:
1. An overview of research ethics principles including respect for persons, beneficence/non-maleficence, and justice/non-exploitation.
2. The roles of various players in NPT research like researchers, sponsors, ethics committees, and communities.
3. Case studies on informed consent challenges in NPT trials in various countries.
4. Balancing ethical concerns like respect for culture versus respect for individual autonomy.
The document aims to provide guidance on navigating these human rights and ethics issues in NPT research.
This document discusses ethics challenges in new prevention technology (NPT) research. It outlines key topics including principles of research ethics, roles of various players in biomedical research, community engagement challenges, and case studies of trials. The main principles of research ethics discussed are respect for persons, beneficence/non-maleficence, and justice/non-exploitation. Community engagement is important to maximize benefits and minimize risks for participants and communities. Informed consent is a process that requires understanding risks and benefits of participation.
1) The study examined the relationship between adolescents' intentional exposure to pornography and sexually aggressive behavior. It found that about 1 in 5 youth reported exposure to non-violent pornography, while 1 in 20 reported exposure to violent pornography.
2) Exposure to non-violent pornography was not associated with increased in-person sexual assault, and may have a protective effect. However, it was linked to increased technology-based sexual harassment.
3) Exposure to violent pornography was strongly associated with increased odds of both technology-based and in-person sexual aggression. The data suggest that violent pornography exposure could increase the risk of peer-to-peer sexual victimization among adolescents.
A Community Approach to Sexual Violence Prevention: Affirmative Consent and B...MSCSA
Sexual violence is a pervasive issue on college and universities campuses. Research suggests every 98 seconds another American is sexually assaulted and that sexual violence is more prevalent on college campuses compared to other crimes (RAINN, 2018). Multiple measures must be taken through policy development, advocacy, and education to address this significant problem. In this session, the presenters will discuss the recent change made to the Minnesota State sexual violence policy to affirmative consent and how proactive bystander intervention training can engage others in the fight against sexual violence.
1.) Introduction
Our Movement is not new; it is the same as it was for Freedom, Justice, and Equality since we were labeled as slaves. However, this movement at its core must entail economics.
2.) Historical Context
This is the same movement because none of the previous movements, such as boycotts, were ever completed. For some, maybe, but for the most part, it’s just a place to keep your stable until you’re ready to assimilate them into your system. The rest of the crabs are left in the world’s worst parts, begging for scraps.
3.) Economic Empowerment
Our Movement aims to show that it is indeed possible for the less fortunate to establish their economic system. Everyone else – Caucasian, Asian, Mexican, Israeli, Jews, etc. – has their systems, and they all set up and usurp money from the less fortunate. So, the less fortunate buy from every one of them, yet none of them buy from the less fortunate. Moreover, the less fortunate really don’t have anything to sell.
4.) Collaboration with Organizations
Our Movement will demonstrate how organizations such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, National Urban League, Black Lives Matter, and others can assist in creating a much more indestructible Black Wall Street.
5.) Vision for the Future
Our Movement will not settle for less than those who came before us and stopped before the rights were equal. The economy, jobs, healthcare, education, housing, incarceration – everything is unfair, and what isn’t is rigged for the less fortunate to fail, as evidenced in society.
6.) Call to Action
Our movement has started and implemented everything needed for the advancement of the economic system. There are positions for only those who understand the importance of this movement, as failure to address it will continue the degradation of the people deemed less fortunate.
No, this isn’t Noah’s Ark, nor am I a Prophet. I’m just a man who wrote a couple of books, created a magnificent website: http://www.thearkproject.llc, and who truly hopes to try and initiate a truly sustainable economic system for deprived people. We may not all have the same beliefs, but if our methods are tried, tested, and proven, we can come together and help others. My website: http://www.thearkproject.llc is very informative and considerably controversial. Please check it out, and if you are afraid, leave immediately; it’s no place for cowards. The last Prophet said: “Whoever among you sees an evil action, then let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then, with his heart – and that is the weakest of faith.” [Sahih Muslim] If we all, or even some of us, did this, there would be significant change. We are able to witness it on small and grand scales, for example, from climate control to business partnerships. I encourage, invite, and challenge you all to support me by visiting my website.

This study examines how intergroup biases may influence economic decision-making. Participants will be told they are interacting with students from their college and another college in an online game, but the interactions are programmed. They will make offers and respond to offers to share money. The researchers will analyze whether offers and perceptions of fairness differ based on the apparent group of the interaction partner. Participants will complete a questionnaire, play the game, and be fully debriefed about the deception regarding the other college and interactions. The goal is to understand how intergroup factors can influence social behavior.

Four online focus groups over 3 days provided social support and information to increase participants' motivation and skills. Sexually inexperienced participants reported the focus groups helped them feel less alone and reinforced waiting for the right person for sex. Sexually experienced participants said the groups reinforced safe sex practices and made them more open to discussing sexuality. Overall, the focus groups appeared to have a positive effect and further research is warranted to quantify their influence on healthy sexual behaviors.

The Dynamics of Social Media Responses
Moral judgment is commonly swayed by irrelevant factors, whereby people tend to arrive at the judgment(s) about different actions as being wrong if they are predisposed to fury prior to the making of moral judgment. On the contrary, the bias for positive emotions makes unacceptable actions at times appear acceptable. In the context, dilemmas that came before the prevalent one influence the permissibility of the unwarranted actions (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). The violation of rationality norms occurs when people allow social consensus to take precedence to facts (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). In like manner, accepting conformity creates room for error and confusion to spread reign a group, whereas the making of independent decisions as well as resistance to conform tends to be socially constructive (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). In this case, resistance to conformity may be considered both moral and rational, as it is commonplace for people’s behaviors to be frequently judged based on whether the persons involved relied on their moral principles or they simply complied. Conformity is, however, considered illogical if a person holds the belief that social consensus should be awarded less weight in the decision in comparison to one’s beliefs and values (Kundu & Cummins, 2013). In a nutshell, conformity can possibly be an outcome of a rational process, whereby the concerned people chose to follow their beliefs and the truth at the expense of a lie.
The seeking of knowledge continuously takes place on various social media platforms, whereby the determinants of the messages obtained by an individual are the pages followed and the friends that one has. Unfortunately, the platforms are responsible for the spread of fake news, whereby some players hide their identities and post content to reinforce their positions (Perfumi et al., 2019). Notably, social norms exist on the platforms but people’s perception of the values vary for a number of reasons, which include platform type, anonymity, and the nature of relationships between friends (Perfumi et al., 2019). Moreover, conformity to social norms in the context of social platforms varies significantly from that of face to face, while social influence therein may be categorized into norms-oriented social influence and information-oriented one. Remarkably, it would be necessary to create a distinction between the two aspects. The implication is that online users who feel that they are anonymous may experience the temptation to disregard the opinions that they could be exposed to. The other implication may be the motive of the users of online platforms. Where the intention is communication at the expense of conformity to social norms, the communicators tend to disregard the norms completely, while they ma ...

Cyber Security Gone too far
Carlos Diego Lima
Excelsior College
BNS301 National Security Ethics and Diversity
How far is it too far when protecting the peoples' rights in cyberspace and its national security? In an ever-evolving cyber world, many states tend to infringe on citizens' cyber information privacy for their own accord. Sometimes governments overstep boundaries and bend the rules to protect the land and overstep the peoples' privacy to enforce rules and regulations. My final paper will analyze rules and regulations within the Cybersecurity realm within the United States. The National Security Strategy is a good guideline on the laws and what the U.S is looking to implement soon. This paper intends not to make conspiracy theories to show facts and existing laws and regulations on how the citizens' privacy has no longer been protected and some examples of historical events. (Snowden) had an ethical dilemma when he made his decisions. My paper will include my opinions and the bullet points below to construct a good argument on how the U.S can protect its citizens' privacy.
· National Security Strategy
· Cyber laws within the United States
· Privacy Laws
· Phone settings
· Phone Companies and laws sharing information to the government
· Internal agencies search and espionage laws

Part 1
One experiment that always stands out in my mind in terms of ethics is Milgram’s experience on obedience and authority. Perhaps this draw comes from the almost militant quality this experiment has in the regards to how far the human psyche can be pushed in response to authoritative prompting. Another fascination I have in regards to this experiment is that Milgram sought out to test how far someone could be pushed past their own personal coconscious beliefs when prompted by an authority figure in an effort to bring some insight to the German soldiers who stated they were just following orders during the horrific events that took place during WWII. In doing so he pushed volunteers from differing backgrounds and professions to administer increasing levels of shock to another human being (or so they thought) as directed by an experiment authority figure. While no individual was actually shocked during this experiment, there was psychological harm done to those who were being directed to administer the shock. Many of these individuals had saw some of their darker potentials to inflict harm on another human being (something that they did not think they were capable of prior to this experiment) and suffered short- and long-term psychological distress as a result. While I do believe there is undeniable insight gained from this experiment and the potential we all have in respect to how far we may go when we believe or trust the person of authority above us, I can see that it came with a cost. Looking back, I think that perhaps the participants could have been better prepared by informing them that they may be put in “high-stress” situations which may affect them after the testing has been completed. I believe an immediate de-briefing could have been done to allow the participants to be fully aware that no individuals were harmed during the testing and have proper support on hand to help resolve any traumatic activations that may have taken place during the experiment, as well as long term access to these professionals should they have further questions or need further support. If I were the researcher this is the route I would have taken to ensure first and foremost my volunteer participants ar3e taken care of to the best of my ability.
Part 2
This course has been a great expansion of my knowledge in regards to the influences that social culture has on the field of psychology. One element that stands out to me is the influence of pop culture and marketing persuasion on our culture. Although the documentary video we had watched covering this topic was quite dated, it was eye opening to see how far the reaches of pop culture had on the way we act and interact within our communities on a pretty deep level. It was also startling to see how far some of these major companies were willing to go to capture the next “big thing” .

This document summarizes the ethical considerations and protocols for a text messaging intervention program for gay, bisexual, and queer teen men. It discusses obtaining informed assent while ensuring safety, verifying identities during online recruitment, and monitoring safe usage of program features. Key components included a waiver of parental permission, self-safety assessments, confirming identifying details over the phone, establishing codes of conduct, and constant monitoring of participant interactions. Some youth declined or adjusted aspects of their participation based on potential risks identified during screening.
The document discusses ethics challenges in new prevention technologies (NPT) research. It covers several topics:
1. An overview of research ethics principles including respect for persons, beneficence/non-maleficence, and justice/non-exploitation.
2. The roles of various players in NPT research like researchers, sponsors, ethics committees, and communities.
3. Case studies on informed consent challenges in NPT trials in various countries.
4. Balancing ethical concerns like respect for culture versus respect for individual autonomy.
The document aims to provide guidance on navigating these human rights and ethics issues in NPT research.
This document discusses ethics challenges in new prevention technology (NPT) research. It outlines key topics including principles of research ethics, roles of various players in biomedical research, community engagement challenges, and case studies of trials. The main principles of research ethics discussed are respect for persons, beneficence/non-maleficence, and justice/non-exploitation. Community engagement is important to maximize benefits and minimize risks for participants and communities. Informed consent is a process that requires understanding risks and benefits of participation.
1) The study examined the relationship between adolescents' intentional exposure to pornography and sexually aggressive behavior. It found that about 1 in 5 youth reported exposure to non-violent pornography, while 1 in 20 reported exposure to violent pornography.
2) Exposure to non-violent pornography was not associated with increased in-person sexual assault, and may have a protective effect. However, it was linked to increased technology-based sexual harassment.
3) Exposure to violent pornography was strongly associated with increased odds of both technology-based and in-person sexual aggression. The data suggest that violent pornography exposure could increase the risk of peer-to-peer sexual victimization among adolescents.
A Community Approach to Sexual Violence Prevention: Affirmative Consent and B...MSCSA
Sexual violence is a pervasive issue on college and universities campuses. Research suggests every 98 seconds another American is sexually assaulted and that sexual violence is more prevalent on college campuses compared to other crimes (RAINN, 2018). Multiple measures must be taken through policy development, advocacy, and education to address this significant problem. In this session, the presenters will discuss the recent change made to the Minnesota State sexual violence policy to affirmative consent and how proactive bystander intervention training can engage others in the fight against sexual violence.
1.) Introduction
Our Movement is not new; it is the same as it was for Freedom, Justice, and Equality since we were labeled as slaves. However, this movement at its core must entail economics.
2.) Historical Context
This is the same movement because none of the previous movements, such as boycotts, were ever completed. For some, maybe, but for the most part, it’s just a place to keep your stable until you’re ready to assimilate them into your system. The rest of the crabs are left in the world’s worst parts, begging for scraps.
3.) Economic Empowerment
Our Movement aims to show that it is indeed possible for the less fortunate to establish their economic system. Everyone else – Caucasian, Asian, Mexican, Israeli, Jews, etc. – has their systems, and they all set up and usurp money from the less fortunate. So, the less fortunate buy from every one of them, yet none of them buy from the less fortunate. Moreover, the less fortunate really don’t have anything to sell.
4.) Collaboration with Organizations
Our Movement will demonstrate how organizations such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, National Urban League, Black Lives Matter, and others can assist in creating a much more indestructible Black Wall Street.
5.) Vision for the Future
Our Movement will not settle for less than those who came before us and stopped before the rights were equal. The economy, jobs, healthcare, education, housing, incarceration – everything is unfair, and what isn’t is rigged for the less fortunate to fail, as evidenced in society.
6.) Call to Action
Our movement has started and implemented everything needed for the advancement of the economic system. There are positions for only those who understand the importance of this movement, as failure to address it will continue the degradation of the people deemed less fortunate.
No, this isn’t Noah’s Ark, nor am I a Prophet. I’m just a man who wrote a couple of books, created a magnificent website: http://www.thearkproject.llc, and who truly hopes to try and initiate a truly sustainable economic system for deprived people. We may not all have the same beliefs, but if our methods are tried, tested, and proven, we can come together and help others. My website: http://www.thearkproject.llc is very informative and considerably controversial. Please check it out, and if you are afraid, leave immediately; it’s no place for cowards. The last Prophet said: “Whoever among you sees an evil action, then let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then, with his heart – and that is the weakest of faith.” [Sahih Muslim] If we all, or even some of us, did this, there would be significant change. We are able to witness it on small and grand scales, for example, from climate control to business partnerships. I encourage, invite, and challenge you all to support me by visiting my website.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

3. Background
Sexual consent is often defined as the voluntary agreement to
participate in a sexual act, though the differing definitions across and
within United States make legal consensus difficult (“RAINN | Rape,
Abuse and Incest National Network,” n.d.)
Seeking consent for a sexual act is relevant to public health as it helps
ensure prevention of sexual violence, sexually transmitted infections
(STIs), unwanted pregnancy, and emotional and psychological distress
(Brodsky, 2017).
In recent years, due to popularization through social media,
nonconsensual condom removal, termed stealthing, is becoming
common, especially among young adults (Brodsky, 2017)
Yet, little to no empirical evidence exists on this sexual behavior.
4. PurposeofStudy
andResearch
Questions
The purpose of this study is to address college students’
knowledge and attitude toward stealthing.
Research Questions:
1a. What is the current attitude and knowledge towards stealthing
among college students?
1b. Are there gender differences in perception towards stealthing
among college students?
2a. What is the current understanding of sexual consent among
college students?
2b. Are there gender differences in understanding sexual consent
among college students?
3. Does social norm play a role in promoting stealthing?
5. Study
Design
Use of an exploratory sequential mixed methods design.
Qualitative portion explores new concepts followed by
quantitative methods.
The Institutional Review Board of the California State University,
San Bernardino has approved this study (FY2017-86).
Methods
6. DataCollection
Data collection occurred in two phases from general
education course/laboratories:
The first phase: qualitative data
n = 13
3 focus groups
2 female groups
1 mixed group (male and female)
Consent was obtained from participants
The primary interviewer asked the central
questions (along with probe questions) to the
focus group participants
All data was digitally recorded and transcribed
verbatim
5 points extra credit given to students from their
instructors
7. DataCollection
The second phase: quantitative data
n = 153
Consent was obtained from participants
7 questions related to sexual consent was asked
2 open ended questions
5 Likert scale questions
5 points extra credit given to students from their
instructors
8. Data
Analysis:
Qualitative
The qualitative results of the study were analyzed
using grounded theory approach.
This method is often used to uncover social processes,
including social relationships and behaviors of groups
These transcripts were analyzed using the grounded
theory approach of three major types of coding: open
coding, axial coding, and selective coding.
Open coding: common words/text
Axial coding: categorized into common groups
Selective coding: highlight the core theme
9. DataAnalysis:
Quantitative
All quantitative analysis data were analyzed in SPSS
v. 24 (IBM, Corp.)
Descriptive statistics were conducted to assess the
prevalence of variables of interest, including sexual
consent related knowledge, attitude, self-efficacy.
Sex differences were further assessed using
bivariate analyses (chi-square), with alpha less
than .05 to denote significance.
Missing value was excluded from analyses
10. Results:QualitativeAnalysis
Several emergent
themes were
identified around the
central construct of
health-decision
making
First theme was
limited knowledge of
stealthing and lack of
awareness of
stealthing.
Second theme was
consent with multiple
sub themes, followed
by the third theme of
sexual assault.
Finally, the last
emergent theme
was the perception
of social norms in
stealthing behavior
11. Limited
Knowledgeand
Awareness
When asked whether participants heard or knew the meaning of stealthing,
participants in the focus groups universally stated that they were not aware or
knew the meaning of stealthing. However, several associated a negative
connotation to the word.
“…I have no idea, never heard of it. It sounds kind of negative in a way.”
“...I don’t really know how to describe it. It just sounds negative.”
Once participants were explained the meaning of stealthing, knowledge
continued to be a theme, especially around the its impact on health-decision
making.
“...when you wear a condom it generally means you guys are protecting
each other from any diseases, once you take off the condom you are no
longer protected.”
12. Consent
(privacyand
trust)
Participants felt that removal of condom without a partner’s
knowledge was going against the consent for sexual act.
Of particular, participants consistently noted that it violated trust
between partners and the lack of communication to remove the
condom.
“...basically again they took off the condom without your consent
and then continued to do something that you did not agree to do,
the terms changed.”
“It’s a violation of their consent, they should have been told if they
wanted to take off the condom that way, they have the choice
weather they want to continue or not. It is a violation of their
trust, privacy, and it’s a health concern as well.”
13. SexualAssault
Participants expressed that stealthing should be considered sexual
assault as once the condom is removed without their partner’s consent.
“The second the page is split and you both are on different pages
there is an issue, as soon as you step over that boundary and remove
the condom without your partner's knowledge that is considered
sexual assault.”
Participants also expressed that if both parties agree to take off the
condom, then it would not be considered sexual assault.
Many participants agreed that stealthing should be against the law
because of the lack of consent and harm it can cause for an individual
“I feel once either partners say no or stop, or I don’t want this
anymore the moment the condom is removed without their
knowledge that’s when it becomes sexual assault.”
14. SocialNorm
Some participants expressed confusion because in porn, which is socially norm
for young adults, there is no way to affirm if consent was asked or not prior to
removal of the condom.
Participants consistently stated since lack of condom is prevalent in porn, it can
encourage curiosity, especially if it is normalized in porn.
“The first time someone sees stealthing in a porn video they might think it’s
a normal thing to do and if they see it so often it can encourage them to
probably try it too.”
Participants expressed that stealthing in the porn industry is the same
correlation of video games and kids being violent.
“…not to stray off with video games, but it can apply to stealthing in porn
as well. People see video games and say “Oh my kid is violent now”, you can
imply the same exact thing with porn, “oh you watch porn this way, and so
you’re going to have sex this way.”
15. Social
Norm/Lackof
Awareness
Participants noted that if individuals who watch porn do not realize that
the act of stealthing is wrong, the behavior may continue and also if there
is lack of knowledge on risk factors, nothing will prevent the behavior
“If they don’t know it’s wrong then they are not going to see it as
wrong. They are going to see it as, this is something fetishized and
something that I might like so I am going to try it. But if there is
educational explanation that stealthing shouldn’t be fetishized and
the risk factors and consequences that are associated to stealthing,
they would less likely try it.”
16. Results:QuantitativeAnalysisonmeaningofstealthing
~86% participants did not
know the meaning of stealthing.
~5 % reported it means to
have sex without consent
~5% reported that it means
you are tricking, manipulating,
deceiving, or “creeping” on
someone to have sex with them
0.7% reported that it means when someone
is infected with HIV and doesn’t tell the other
person
2.1% reported to hide something in plain sight
or do something without anyone else knowing
17. Results:QuantitativeAnalysisonConsent
Confidence (strongly agree/agree) in asking for consent = 96%
Confidence (strongly agree/agree) in giving consent = 94.7%
92% reported strongly agree/agree to unwanted touching, kissing, or hugging should
be considered sexual assault
A higher prevalence was noted among females (96.3%) as compared to males (89.4%).
16.6% reported strongly disagree/disagree that removal of a condom without
approval of sexual partners should be considered sexual assault
A higher prevalence was noted among males (17.9%) compared to females
(14.5%).
18. Conclusion
Most participants were unaware of the meaning but considered it negative
upon word association.
Upon learning the meaning, participants viewed it to be a break of trust,
privacy, consent, and attributed social norm (such as porn) to making it
popular.
Understanding of consent was also varied. While most reported confidence
in giving or asking for consent, what is considered consent was varied and
there were sex differences.
A higher portion of females considered unwanted advances to be considered
sexual assault
A higher portion of males did not believe nonconsensual condom removal
should be sexual assault
19. ImplicationsforResearch
Stealthing has limited research, it is recommended to continue
exploring the new sex trend to prevent sexual assault, reduce STIs,
and emotional and psychological distress.
Further research is needed to look at population groups of those
who have committed the act of stealthing, understanding why the act
of stealthing is committed, and when the act of stealthing is
committed. It is important to understand why stealthing occurs to
address and implement future policies.
In addition, further research among the LGBT community is
important because they are at a higher risk of HIV and limited to no
research among the LGBT community.
20. ImplicationsforPractice
Our results demonstrate that there is a need for health educators to
assess the prevalence of such a behavior among young adults and
policy makers to assess the legal implications of nonconsensual
condom removal.
This further affirms the need for a comprehensive and concrete
definition of consent, especially in college campuses.
Campus health centers need enhance attention to address the
prevalence of this behavior among their college student population
and provide resources.

Editor's Notes
Trigger warning This research contains information about sexual assault which may be triggering to individuals.
in California, consent is defined as free and voluntary agreement with knowledge of the act, while North Carolina has no specific definition of consent,
The California State University is one of the most ethnically and racially diverse university system in the United States. The CSUSB campus population is reflective of the diversity of the service area, with, 61% of the population as females, 81% as first-generation college students, and 62% of the undergraduates are low income students
All responses were digitally recorded, and an assistant took further notes on the focus group participants. Each focus group was limited to no more than 10 participants and 1 hour. Appendix A lists the questions asked in the focus groups. A total of three focus groups and 13 participants were included in the qualitative aspect.

Open coding was conducted by identifying texts/words that were repetitive in each of the transcripts. These words/texts were then categorized into common groups as part of axial coding. Next, selective coding was conducted to highlight the core theme and how each of the other identified categories were related, to formalize a theory

Although, some may not see unwanted touching, kissing, or hugging as a form of attack, some may believe that it is. This further affirms a comprehensive and concrete definition of consent is needed, especially in college campuses.
However, the lack of actually understanding consent is evident from the aforementioned assessment of unwanted touching, kissing, etc. Likewise, majority of participants were confident in asking or giving consent, but more than 15% disagreed that the condom removal without consent should be considered sexual assault.
Furthermore, lack of confidence in giving consent were nearly similar for both females and males, as was inability to say no to sexual activity. If individuals have the inability to say no to a sexual activity, then the lack of confidence in giving and asking consent should be lot lower than what the results displayed;
