“…Our analysis of memorable postcampaign conversations illustrated the effectiveness of the campaign (Davis et al, 2016) in terms of key communication outcomes. First, conversations resulted in offers for donations, increased feelings of hopefulness, and relational closeness, similar to previous research (Johnson et al, 2014; Smith et al, 2009). This indicates that some campaign effects (such as increasing hope) may be amplified through postcampaign conversations.…”

“…Hence, the campaign videos featured first-person narratives from tribal community members, their relatives, and health care professionals across the state. Those stories illustrated the most powerful and memorable elements of their experiences (Johnson, Orbe, & Cooke-Jackson, 2014). For example, one man’s heartfelt narrative recounted how kidney donation helped to strengthen his relationship with his father (whom he did not know until he was 16 years old).…”

“…Characteristics of memorable messages, such as the topic, can be significantly associated with health outcomes (see Smith et al, 2009). This conversation–action link can also be evaluated qualitatively, by gathering data from participants about their perceptions of the message impacts (Johnson et al, 2014). The MMF for campaign evaluation allows researchers to examine the potential links between campaign messages, postcampaign conversations, and health actions/behaviors.…”

Living kidney donation and transplant (LKDT) offers a path of hope for patients on indefinite dialysis treatment. However, identification of a living donor can be challenging; initiating these conversations is difficult. Our study analyzes memorable conversations about LKDT that occurred in response to an LKDT campaign targeted to Native Americans. Our analysis of n = 28 memorable conversations revealed that the campaign prompted conversations and increased communication efficacy about LKDT. Based on these findings, we suggest that campaign designers utilize narratives within campaigns to model communication self-efficacy and then analyze the content of postcampaign conversations as an indicator of campaign effectiveness.

“…While all Black women in the United States are embedded within a White patriarchal society, future research might consider whether Black college women attending historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) have different sexual experiences based on their immersion in majority Black settings. While some scholars have found that Black women at HBCUs described sexual pleasure as an affront to respectability (e.g., Simmons, 2012), others have found that Black women at HBCUs describe both positive (i.e., those associated with what was deemed as pleasurable) and negative (i.e., nonpleasurable to abusive) intimate, sexual experiences (A. L. Johnson et al, 2014).…”

Researchers suggest that the Jezebel stereotype exerts a significant influence on Black women’s sexual decision making. The current qualitative study drew upon narrative data from individual, semistructured interviews with 50 Black women (ages 18-24 years) to explore how the Jezebel stereotype influenced their sexual beliefs and behaviors. Using consensual qualitative research methods, the following four themes emerged from the data: (a) how the Jezebel plays a role in their sexual exploration, (b) how the Jezebel contributes to sexual violence against Black women, (c) how the Jezebel is a hypersexual media representation of Black women’s sexuality, and (d) how the Jezebel is a negative sexual stereotype within family contexts. Our findings contextualize the enduring role of the Jezebel stereotype as a sexual script for Black women, as we found that many participants chose to adapt their clothing choices or sexual behaviors in light of their awareness and endorsement of the stereotype. The authors discuss the implications of study findings for Black women and girls’ sexual socialization and deconstructing deficit-based ideologies of Black women’s sexuality.

“…Nadrea R. Njoku, Malika Butler, and Cameron C. Beatty (2017) draw attention to the marginalization of sexual assault survivors at HBCUs. Other researchers have found that black women report positive intimate experiences at HBCUs (A. L. Johnson, Orbe, and Cooke-Johnson 2014).…”

The current study integrates stress process model and intersectionality framework to explore psychological effects of an intersectional stressor experienced by black women: gendered racial microaggressions (GRMs). Prior research suggests GRMS negatively influence black women’s mental health. However, it is unclear whether specific dimensions of GRMS are more or less impactful to mental health. This study investigates: To what extent do black women experience GRMS overall and its specific dimensions: Assumptions of Beauty and Sexual Objectification; Silenced and Marginalized; Strong Black Woman Stereotype; Angry Black Woman Stereotype? What is the relationship between GRMS and depressive symptoms? Do psychosocial resources (i.e., social support, self-esteem, mastery) mediate the association between GRMS and depressive symptoms? We use data from black women attending a historically Black university in the Southeast ( N = 202). We employed ordinary least squares regression analysis and performed mediation analysis. Study results revealed a positive association between GRMS and depressive symptoms; the Angry Black Woman Stereotype GRMS dimension had the most robust influence on depressive symptoms. Psychosocial resources partially mediated the relationship between GRMS and depressive symptoms. Study results suggest that sociological stress research underestimates the influence of stress on black women’s health when intersectional stressors like GRMS are not included in analytic models.
