Abstract
To address sexual assault on college campuses, many universities have adopted affirmative consent. Despite the adoption of these policies, there has been little research understanding the nuances of sexual consent. Drawing from sexual script theory, this study uses qualitative methodology to explore how college students understand sexual consent. Constant comparison analysis of focus groups revealed six themes relating to students’ attitudes and behaviors pertaining to sexual consent. Study implications are discussed.
