Maurice Levesque, associate professor of psychology, and Christopher Nave, a 2004 Elon graduate, had their article titled “Toward an Understanding of Gender Differences in Inferring Sexual Interest” accepted for publication in the Psychology of Women Quarterly.
The article examines several aspects of the well documented tendency of men to oversexualize their interactions with women. Nave, who is now a graduate student in psychology at Wake Forest University, worked with Levesque as part of the Summer Undergraduate Research Experiences program.
