Alan Berkowitz:
Recent research and program evaluation results shed light on challenges in the application of the social norms approach and bystander intervention theory to the prevention of high-risk behaviors. This session reviews results of a successful rape prevention program for men that combined normative feedback with bystander intervention training for college freshmen living together in residence halls. A 75% reduction in actual sexual assaults was documented after 4 months but did not remain at 7 month follow-up, although other beneficial changes persisted. This "rebound effect" sheds light on some of the challenges facing us as we utilize these two approaches (separately or together) to prevent and reduce high-risk behaviors such as sexual assault, bullying, substance abuse, and prejudice. Linda Langford:
Research consistently finds an association between alcohol and violence. However, the nature of that association is complex, so applying these findings to campus prevention efforts can be challenging. Different stakeholders may hold diverse views about whether and how these associations should be incorporated into prevention efforts, and the decentralization of alcohol and violence prevention planning efforts across individuals or departments may create both challenges and opportunities for finding common ground. This session is designed to provide a context and opportunity for open dialogue about the intersections between alcohol and violence and the implications for prevention. The session will open with a brief presentation of research and other background to help inform and frame the discussion. The remainder of the session will be devoted to dialogue, perspective-sharing, and collaborative problem-solving among participants. Jane Stapleton:
This workshop will explore the connections between awareness, activism and prevention. We will look at past and current examples of awareness campaigns and activism to end violence against women and examine how they can support prevention strategies. Specific attention will focus on awareness and activism that challenges systems that support violence against women and how to build upon them to create fertile environments for prevention.
