Robbyn Scribner, Allie Barnes, and I analyzed the specific comments focused on Latter-day Saint settings and published a piece on it last year in the Square Two Journal. It was titled “Sexist Comments in Latter-day Saint Settings.” Sexism takes many forms, from blatant and aggressive to unintentional and subtle. Gender-related societal attitudes, social norms, unconscious biases, and microaggressions all contribute to the sexist beha...2023-05-1312 minUtah Women & Leadership PodcastUtah Women & Leadership PodcastSexist Comments & Responses Part IIIThis is the third episode that discusses sexist comments and responses with Dr. Susan Madsen, Founding Director of the Utah Women & Leadership Project, and Robbyn Scribner, lead researcher on this report series.

In 2017, more than 72,000 Americans died from drug overdoses, a number that has doubled in the past decade. From 2013–2015, 776 Utah women died from a drug overdose. Women are more likely to be prescribed opioids and to develop an addiction more easily when compared to men.

It is only in the last half century or so that women in the US have been able to participate fully in the financial matters that affect their everyday lives. Utah women’s lives in the 21st century look dramatically different from their lives in years pas...2021-10-0424 minUtah Women & Leadership PodcastUtah Women & Leadership PodcastMammography Among Utah WomenBreast cancer is one of the most commonly occurring cancers among U.S. women and the primary cause of cancer death among women in Utah. Yet, research has found that deaths from breast cancer can be substantially reduced if the tumor is discovered early, and mammography screening is the most effective method for early detection. However, despite the advantages of mammography screening for reducing mortality, not all women receive screening according to recommended guidelines, and screening rates remain low. This is also true in Utah; in fact, a recent study showed Utah to be among the five lowest states...2021-08-3119 minAccess UtahAccess UtahRevisiting The State Of Sexual Harassment In Utah On Monday's Access UtahToday, as a part of our series: Stopping Sexual Harassment, we’ll talk with Susan Madsen and Robbyn Scribner of the Utah Women and Leadership Project at Utah Valley University.
