Among college students, casual sex means different things to different partners. University of Cincinnati clinical psychology PhD candidate Eliza Weitbrecht led the new line of research. She decided to focus on casual sexual encounters because she believes that motivations and outcomes of young adult romantic and sexual activity are not well understood.
She has noted a shift in the dating and romantic landscape among young adults, including increased ambiguity and complexity in romantic and sexual relationships, she said. She said she is honored to have been chosen to be considered for the regional award.
Aside from working on her research, she is currently completing her pre-doctoral clinical internship at the Orlando VA Medical. Because this is her last year of study in the College of Arts and Sciences, she is also applying for jobs. She hopes to obtain a position in a VA Medical Center or Academic Health Center, where she would like to pursue her clinical and research interests in the field of intimate relationships.
I have no doubt she will go on to a productive career conducting research in this important area.
