dc.description.abstract | This capstone explores the contributing factors to the prevalence of alcohol-involved sexual violence among a college age demographic, as well as special considerations and best practices relevant for therapeutic practitioners in supporting roles to these young adults. This capstone addresses the following five topics to help guide the research that was conducted: the specific characteristics associated with both problematic drinking behaviours and forms of sexual violence; the relationship between binge drinking culture and sexual violence; what "rape culture" is and how sexual violence is normalized and reinforced by the societal ideologies that influence college-age populations; the adverse mental health consequences commonly faced by survivors of alcohol-involved sexual assault; and the best practices and special considerations when addressing these common mental health concerns among college-age survivors of alcohol-involved sexual assault. The knowledge gained from the research on the above topics highlight several contributing factors, special considerations, best practices, as well as preventative measures that can be taken to help reduce the prevalence of sexual violence among this population; these findings ultimately conclude that there is no one single factor that creates this issue, which subsequently suggests that there is no one single solution to this issue, but rather a multitude of topics to explore with clients impacted by forms of alcohol-involved sexual violence. | |
