Tel: 1 x Fax: 1 Two authors coded for the presence of 10 benefits kappas: 0. From a developmental perspective, hooking up is consistent with the tasks of emerging adulthood, a time of experimentation and exploration regarding relationships and sexuality Arnett, Hookups have also been found to be associated with depression, sexual victimization, and sexually transmitted infections Authors, However, recent work has highlighted the importance of understanding motivations for casual sex in interpreting the effects of hookups on emotional well-being see Vrangalova, Most research on the effects of hooking up has focused on negative outcomes Garcia et al.
To enhance understanding of the benefits of hooking up from the perspective of young women, we surveyed a large sample of female college students and summarize the benefits in their own words. All procedures were approved by the Institutional Review Board. Incoming first-year female students received a mass mailing inviting them to participate. Interested women attended a study orientation session, provided written informed consent, and completed the baseline survey in person.
Subsequent monthly surveys were administered using a secure website. Participants received modest payment for completing surveys, which assessed a range of health behaviors, including sexual behavior. What were the benefits, positive consequences, or good things that you experienced as a result of the hookup? We used a quasi-statistical coding process Lewis et al.
After reviewing all responses, the first and second authors independently developed a list of benefit categories. Both authors identified the same categories, with only minor variation. The first, second, and fourth authors discussed the options and finalized a list of categories Table 1.
The first and second authors then independently coded all responses, later discussing all discrepancies until a consensus was reached. For each response, we coded all categories as either 0 not present or 1 present. The average kappa statistic for the 10 categories was 0. Categories were not mutually exclusive, so a response could reference more than one. Categories were not mutually exclusive, so participants could endorse more than one.
