28VICTORIA CURTIS (ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY), KATHERINE WOOD (ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY), REBECCA HOUSTON (ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY) Binge drinking and cannabis use among young adults is on the rise and evidence of impulsivity and executive functioning differences based on use of these substances is inconsistent. The current study used selfreport questionnaires and neuropsychological assessments and found differences in specific facets of impulsivity across groups characterized by their recent history of binge drinking and cannabis use. However, no group effects were indicated in terms of executive functioning performance.POSTER 39EFFECTS OF CAMERA PERSPECTIVE AND PERCEIVED RACE ON JUDGEMENTS OF POLICE BEHAVIORMARIELLE MAPLE (SMITH COLLEGE), YAEL GRANOT (SMITH COLLEGE) Camera perspective affects interpretations of police behavior; when looking at body-camera footage, oriented away from the officer, perceivers rate the officer as less intentional and culpable than when viewing footage from a third-person perspective. We replicated and extended this effect, with a survey of White Americans, exploring the interaction between civilian race and camera perspective on officer culpability. We discuss implications of the use of body cameras in the legal system.POSTER 40EFFECTS OF LEARNING DIFFERENCES AND ACCOMMODATION STATUS ON STUDENT PERCEPTIONMAGGIE VEROSTICK (UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH AT JOHNSTOWN), STEVEN E. STERN (UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH AT JOHNSTOWN) The present study explores student perception of learning differences in higher education by observing differing opinions towards students who receive accommodations, students who do not receive accommodations, and students who do not seek accommodations, and whether specific learning differences: ADHD, test anxiety, dyscalculia, dyslexia, and dysgraphia, influence these perceptions. The present study seeks to contribute to advancing knowledge in the field by gaining additional insight into the impact of accommodations and inclusion in academic environments.POSTER 41NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME AND SLEEP QUALITY ACROSS FOUR NEW YORK CITY NEIGHBORHOODSZ-QUANA POWELL JONES (LEHMAN COLLEGE CUNY), MIA BUDESCU (LEHMAN COLLEGE), MARTIN J DOWNING JR (LEHMAN COLLEGE) The current examines the association between perceptions of neighborhood violence and property crimes and sleep quality among adults. Data were collected in four neighborhoods in New York City that vary in racial and economic segregation. Participants responded to a self-report survey assessing sleep quality and perceptions of property and violent crime in their immediate neighborhood. The study aims to identify risk and protective factors for sleep health.POSTER 42NEURODIVERSE STUDENT PERSPECTIVES: ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL STRENGTHS AND CHALLENGES.KATIE KARLEN (DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SCIENCES, STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT OSWEGO), EMILY R. BOVIER (DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SCIENCES, STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT OSWEGO.) This study evaluated relationships among disability identity and neurodiverse students' perceptions of their strengths and challenges in academic and social situations. Common themes emerged with regard to motivation and communication, in addition to overarching challenges related to attention. Although differences did not reach statistical significance, participants with higher disability pride endorsed more strengths relative to challenges, suggesting that positive psychology-based efforts may promote student growth and influence identity.POSTER 43PARENT ADVERSITY, PARENTING, AND INFANT CORTISOL REACTIVITY IN CONTEXTS OF FAMILY HOMELESSNESSSARAH HELSTROM (VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY), JANETTE HERBERS (VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY), KATHERINE HAYES (VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY), JENNIFER ATTAH-GYAMFI (VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY), ABIGAIL KNIGHT (VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY), MALLORY GARNETT (VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY), J.J.
