Digital Gender-Based violence (DGBV) is a social problem affecting overproportionally younger people, especially women and LGTB. Training programmes to combat DGBV are recommended but we lack evidence-based evaluation of them. We evaluate a series of trainings at university for all participants (N = 190), taking into account gender and sexual…

Identifying leisure constraints in various leisure settings has been the topic of investigation for over thirty years; however, more research needs to focus on on-campus recreation program areas and race and gender-related constraints. This study used Shifman et al.'s (2012) quantitative instrument used to measure interpersonal, intrapersonal, and…

This study utilized a qualitative approach to learn about a co-educational housing pilot program in a rural serving, four-year regional university in the mid-south United States.
