Is all the media surrounding college "hookup culture" accurate?  Do people mostly meet online or IRL?  Is there any difference with international students?

 

With a wealth of knowledge under her belt, Dr. Paul and I sit down to see if we can figure out what's really going on out there and what, if anything, we can all do to help.  Join us for a fun conversation to see if we can help unlock love! 

 

Dr. Paul has published many studies including:

- Is Online Better Than Offline for Meeting Partners? Depends: Are You Looking to Marry or to Date?

- Swiping for Sex: Identifying Factors that Predict US-based College Students’ Likelihood of Using Location-based Mobile Dating Applications for Hook-ups

Aditi Paul is a researcher, author, and former professor with over a decade of experience working at the intersection of technology, psychology, and human communication.  Dr. Paul is also committed to helping Indian international students and professionals navigate their immigration journeys.  Having gone through the arduous process of being an international student to finally becoming a permanent resident, Dr. Paul knows firsthand how challenging immigration can be.  Her goal is to help the next generation of immigrants navigate their journey with confidence and ease.
