| Abstract: | This paper is a meta-analysis that explores the effects of hazing and how much of its influence is spread throughout the high school and college community. The research consisted of surveys, past experiences, census sampling, a combination of news articles, first-hand witness accounts, and the hazing deaths database. The results shown reveal that men who intend to join a fraternity endorse sexual violence and hazing violence attitudes to a greater extent than their uncertain and uninterested counterparts. In addition to having been hazed. The experience of being hazed travels to the next generation, and then it is inflicted on others because it was done to them, and the deaths increase between 1 to 5 deaths per year due to hazing. This research affects the understanding of fraternity life because it tests our minds to think about whether something is actually good for our well-being, or if it is a temporary good with a price to pay. In addition, it allows us to pay close attention to any organization with letters because that organization might be going in the wrong direction. |
