An estimated 27 million people are enslaved in the world today. Human trafficking, or the modern day slave trade, is the second largest criminal enterprise in the world and may be the greatest human rights challenge of our time. This poster presents an overview of modern day slavery along with an in depth look at two major types of human trafficking: forced labor and sex trafficking.

In the past, there has been extensive research on the grieving process. However, there has been little research specifically on how college-age students experience grief. The College-Age Grief Differentiation Scale (CAGDS) distinguishes between complicated and typical grief in college students who have experienced the death of a loved one. Using 13 subscales, this instrument accounts for the unique ways in which this population grieves while also assessing the severity of the grief. It can be given as either a pencil and paper test or an interview as a tool for counseling.

Past research has shown that there is a correlation between substance use and criminal behavior (Harrison and Gfroerer, 1992). The Inventory of Substance Dependency and Criminal Behavior was developed to measure that link and the likelihood of future criminal behavior. Research also shows that there are other risk factors that predict criminal behavior. This test measures substance dependency from one subscale and predicts the likelihood of future criminal behavior from four subscales which highlight some of those risk factors. 40 college students were sampled to obtain a normative group. The normative group scored relatively low on the subscales so high scores would indicate substance dependency and the likelihood of future criminal behavior.
