  Jessica R. Andrews-Hanna & Joanna J. Arch
University of Colorado, Boulder
  Do you ever wonder what you’re thinking about? Do you ever find yourself lost in thought? Do your thoughts make you feel inspired? Anxious? Happy? Do you wish you could gain a better sense of your thoughts and see how they compare to others’? Welcome to Where’s My Mind?, an app that helps you answer these questions by allowing you to track your thoughts at random moments throughout the day. By using this app, you will also help make possible the development of a large international database of internal thinking. This database will help foster important future scientific research. How does this app work? This app is divided into 4 parts. Each part is described below. • Part 1 will ask some basic questions about you (such as the country you live in), and when you wake up and go to bed (which tells the app when to track your thoughts). This part will take about 3 minutes. • Part 2 will ask you questions about your beliefs, feelings, and goals. This part will take about 3-5 minutes. • Part 3 will help you track your thoughts over multiple days. The app will send a notification to your device at 4 random times each day during waking hours, helping you to record the nature of your thoughts and activities immediately prior to receiving the notification. Responding to a notification takes only 1-2 minutes. • Part 4. After responding to 40 notifications, you will have the opportunity to view your thought report and compare your thoughts to those of other users. You can choose to see graphs displaying what kinds of things you typically think about, whether you find your thoughts to be helpful or unhelpful, how often your thoughts are focused on-task versus off-task, and more! Your graphs will be updated as you continue to use the app and as the database grows.

:: Male and Female Victims of Dating Violence in Both Heterosexual and Same Sex Relationships: Differences in Attachment Style and Help-Seeking Behavior ::
  Kathleen Kline, Matthew Geyer
Walden University
  Current research on dating violence has established that victimization by dating violence is a major social problem accross college campuses. Victimization by dating violence exists regardless of a student's gender or sexual orientation. Many victimized by dating violence experience consequences ranging from physical injury to enduring psychological trauma and even death. A link between attachment style and help-seeking behavior among individuals seeking help for various medical and psychiatric/psychological problems has led to the development of innovative interventions designed to assist those who would not otherwise seek help. The purpose of the study is to examine differences in type of violence experienced, attachment style and help-seeking behavior or type of help sought among both male and female victims of dating violence in both heterosexual and same-sex dating relationships among college students to further research in this area which could lead to the development of effective screening protocols and interventions specifically designed to assist victims of dating violence regardless of gender or sexual orientation who might not otherwise seek help. This web-based, online, completely anonymous and confidential survey is hosted on a secured, password protected, encrypted survey service site, www.surveymonkey.com. The Walden University Institutional Review Board has granted approval to conduct this study.
