PSYC 220 - Research in Family Violence

Students in this course will work in Professor Denise Hines’ research lab on various projects related to issues in family violence. Ongoing projects focus on male victimization of female-perpetrated partner violence, and research and evaluation of the Clark Anti-Violence Education (CAVE) program, which focuses on the prevention of sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking among Clark University students. Other projects vary year by year, but focus on the general topic of family/interpersonal violence. Students will engage in a variety of tasks, including but not limited to: data coding, background literature searches, and recruitment of participants. A one-year commitment is required, with that commitment beginning in the fall semester. Students can elect to take the second semester as a capstone research requirement.
