Description / Abstract
Written for Dr. Cindy Peterson and Prof. Bo Cassell in partial fulfillment of requirements for Senior Capstone in Interdisciplinary Studies, April 10, 2016.
Maurine Dickerson Research Scholarship, 2015-2016, honorable mention paper, undergraduate student category.
Abstract: This research, conducted on the campus of a small Christian university, studies students’ views of oppression related to sexualized and hypersexualized images. Students who participated were asked their views on oppression and then asked whether or not images re℔枰ecting varying degrees of sexuality were oppressive to women. For the nine images to which students were exposed, the majority of students found each individual image oppressive to women. Few students found none of the images oppressive to women. There were marked di℔最erences in responses between females and males, as well as Christians and non-Christians. The results call for more studies to be done to test the reliability of this research. Finally, those who create
sexualized media that students perceive as oppressive to women should consider this as an ethical concern.
