Article Synopsis
- Understanding sexual consent is essential for promoting sexual health and preventing sexual assault among college students.
- A study analyzed data from 610 students to identify consent profiles based on their feelings of willingness and how they communicate consent during sexual encounters.
- Findings revealed five distinct profiles, with most students expressing clear willingness and external cues for consent, while a minority showed low levels of both internal and external consent; training programs could help improve awareness of internal desires and encourage healthier communication around consent.
