Abstract

Abstract: This study examines the relationship between hookup culture and self-esteem among college students using standardized scales to measure both variables. A total of 43 college students participated in the study. Results indicate that hookup culture is negatively associated with self-esteem. Specifically, individuals who reported more frequent hookup experiences had lower self-esteem compared to those who reported less frequent or no hookups. These findings highlight the potential negative impact of hookup culture on college students' mental health and well-being. College health programs and counseling services may benefit from developing interventions to support students' self-esteem and to promote healthy sexual behaviors.
