Integrating Methodological Advances and Technology to Understand and Improve Sexual Health

Michael Reece, Ph.D., MPH and Debby Herbenick, Ph.D., MPH Center for Sexual Health Promotion, School of HPER Indiana University-Bloomington

The Center for Sexual Health Promotion (CSHP) pursues progressive research and education agendas in order to understand sexual interactions in contemporary society and to translate research findings into community-level interventions that seek to improve sexual literacy and sexual health. As they pursue these agendas, researchers at CSHP have been particularly focused on using new and evolving research methods and integrating them with technology-based approaches in their work. Drs. Reece and Herbenick will share some of their recent work related to internet-based daily diaries, using the internet to access nationally representative samples of the U.S. population, and to engaging with online communities to enhance sexuality-related education.

Michael Reece, Ph.D., MPH is an Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Health Science in the School of HPER and Director of the Center for Sexual Health Promotion.

Debby Herbenick, Ph.D., MPH is Assistant Research Scientist in the Department of Applied Health Science in the School of HPER and Associate Director of the Center for Sexual Health Promotion.
