Students (N=110) from Commonwealth University-Mansfield completed a survey packet that included questions about their personal history with cancelation and social exclusion, and a \scenario-behavioral response questionnaire\research suggests that people that have a \history of canceling\likely to cancel their peers than those who do not.POSTER 74HOW PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTANCE AND MESSAGE FRAMING AFFECTS YOUNG VOTER ENGAGEMENTGEOVANNI BARBOSA (PROVIDENCE COLLEGE), KELSEY LYNCH (PROVIDENCE COLLEGE), ALYSSA SAMMATARO (PROVIDENCE COLLEGE), ANYA STANTON (PROVIDENCE COLLEGE), SAAID MENDOZA (PROVIDENCE COLLEGE) We examined how psychological distance and message framing influences young voter engagement. Based on Construal Level Theory, we hypothesized that political issues perceived as far versus near in time would be viewed more abstractly, thus reducing voting urgency. Furthermore, we expected that voting intentions would be lower with pessimistic versus optimistic framing, since negative messaging tends to reduce self-efficacy. We find support for these effects for socially progressive (climate change) but not conservative (economy) issues.POSTER 75SENSE OF HUMOR AND PERCEPTIONS OF MEMES WITH SUICIDE-RELATED CONTENTABRAHAM RODRIGUEZ (ALBANY COLLEGE OF PHARMACY AND HEALTH SCIENCES), NANCY DORR (ALBANY COLLEGE OF PHARMACY AND HEALTH SCIENCES), IMANI ARCHER FORDEN (ALBANY COLLEGE OF PHARMACY AND HEALTH SCIENCES) Two studies examined if sense of humor correlates with perceptions of suicide memes. Young adults completed a sense of humor scale and perceptions of suicide memes. Results from both studies showed participants using humor to cope perceived that suicide memes help them to not feel alone and help them to talk about suicide. Results from Study 2 showed that those higher in self-defeating humor reported a higher desire to commit suicide after viewing suicide memes.POSTER 76THEMES OF THE IDEAL BODY FOR GENDERQUEER INDIVIDUALSKYLE DUMKE (EMMANUEL COLLEGE), BLUE MARANTO (EMMANUEL COLLEGE), LINDA LIN (EMMANUEL COLLEGE) The present research aims to examine common themes of body ideals for genderqueer individuals based on gender identity. The study splits participants into four self-identified gender groups: transgender men/women, and nonbinary assigned female/male at birth. Current observed themes include characteristics matching gender identity (masculine/feminine/androgynous), slimmer build for nonbinary AFAB participants, and more muscle for nonbinary AMAB participants. This study offers more insight on specific body ideal themes for genderqueer individuals previously missing in research.POSTER 77QUALITIES OF COLLEGE MAJORS ASSESSED BY SHEPHERD UNIVERSITY STUDENTSSTORM JARROTT (SHEPHERD UNIVERSITY), LINDSEY LEVITAN (SHEPHERD UNIVERSITY) he current study examines stereotypes of college majors, how closely people identify with their major, and if there is an interaction between gender and whether a major is stereotypically female or not in predicting belongingness in major. Results demonstrate that some stereotypes are changing while others persist. Additionally, students feel stronger membership in majors perceived as predominantly made up of people with their gender.POSTER 78ASSOCIATION BETWEEN HOURS SPENT AT CLUBHOUSE REHABILITATION PROGRAM AND SENSE OF BELONGINGAMRO NAGI (MARIST COLLEGE), ARIANNA RIVERA (MARIST COLLEGE), MARY STONE (MARIST COLLEGE) 159Saturday, March 8
