Abstract | Studies on the socialization of American college students indicates a pervasive trend in hookups as opposed to the traditional dating. Hookups are associated with fraternity and sorority parties in which two individuals "hook up" and have a sexual encounter without the commitment of developing a formal relationship. This research was based on inquiry if the practice of hookups was still popular and prominent among undergraduate college students. Two focus groups and two independent investigative studies of undergraduate students were collected over four independent semesters. The results indicated that college students do scan the physical appearance of prospective partners as well as friends, thus, perhaps promoting the concept of body dating as reference to hookups and a possible perpetuation of body image issues. Contrarily, the results indicated that hookups and its associated at-risk behaviors such as alcohol abuse or coercion were not supported or desired, but rather, this sample of college students actively engaged in roles of chaperones as a means for developing a safe environment. The majority of this sample also identified themselves as religious, having low levels of depressive symptoms but higher levels of anxiety and stress tendencies.
