THE LATEST

Public Attitudes About Today's Dating Landscape

Nearly half of Americans think dating has gotten harder in the last 10 years - especially women, who are much more likely than men to say dating now comes with more risk. Many think the recent increased focus on sexual harassment and assault has made it harder to know how to behave on dates, particularly for men.

Fewer US High Schoolers Having Sex

Fewer than 40% of American high schoolers have ever had sexual intercourse, a decline of over 15 percentage points since the early 1990s. The historic drop is one of the findings in the 2019 iteration of the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), a biannual survey administered by the CDC that tracks risky behaviors, including sexual intercourse, among America's high schoolers.

People Who Experience Parental Divorce Have Less ‘Love Hormone’

People who were children when their parents were divorced showed lower levels of oxytocin — the so-called “love hormone” — when they were adults than those whose parents remained married, according to a study led by Baylor University. That lower level may play a role in having trouble forming attachments when they are grown.

What Gen Z Would Like to Accomplish Before Marriage

Platforms like TikTok and YouTube aren't only front of mind for Gen Z and younger millennials. According to The Future of Relationships & Weddings Study released by The Knot, attitudes and expectations among the "GenZennials" or Gen Z and younger millennials regarding marriages and weddings is evolving with a focus on several life objectives before commitment.

Types of Romantic Relationships in Emerging Adulthood

This study identified different types of romantic relationships in emerging adulthood. Understanding different relationships can help relationship educators better serve participants with different types of relationships who can benefit from different skills and principles.

Recognizing and Responding to Teen Dating Violence

This infographic presents key recommendations and results from the youth-focused component of the Responding to Intimate Violence in Relationship Programs (RIViR) study. One in four youth disclosed having TDV. Youth who identified as non-heterosexual were significantly more likely to experience TDV than heterosexual youth. Findings indicated that the tools worked best when administered later in the program and that youth felt more comfortable with staff, and more familiar with options for keeping themselves safe, after the universal education conversation.

TOOLS YOU CAN USE

Developing Competence in Teens

Youth need to develop competence in many aspects of daily living to successfully navigate the world. These include communication skills, self-advocacy skills, peer negotiation skills, and academic skills to name a few. These skills will serve them both in adolescence and throughout adulthood. Young people also benefit from decision-making and stress-management skills if they are going to make the kind of choices that will support their health and well-being.

Fast Facts on Marriage

with a rate of 44.5 first marriages per 1,000 never-married women. This and more interesting facts about marriage from Bowling Green State University National Center for Family & Marriage Research.

Continuous Evidence Building through

Small Tests of Change

Project Evident strives to put practitioners in the driver’s seat when it comes to building evidence for their programs. This doesn’t mean they need to become statisticians or data wizards. Even small programs without data expertise can run small tests of change to continuously improve—and build evidence for—their programs. This webinar will give a practical overview to get you started on continuous improvement.

Webinar attendees will:

Learn how to identify problems and measure targets for continuous improvement.
Go through a working example of root cause analysis as a tool for identifying and prioritizing potential changes.
Gain guidance in assessing changes, qualitatively and quantitatively.

Presenter: Gregor Thomas, Project Evident, Director of Data and Evidence Science, Mississippi

Who should attend: All organization leaders responsible for overseeing and measuring effective program delivery, i.e. program directors, program managers, facilitators, and evaluators.

When: Wednesday, October 14, 2020, 4:00 pm Eastern/1:00 pm Pacific

Duration: 60 Minutes

Cost: Free!
