Sexual Harassment: A Common Sample for the University and the Workplace.
Beauregard, Terri Kinion
The sexual harassment experienced by a sample of women (N=154) in a university setting was compared with the sexual harassment experienced by them in a workplace setting. Results appeared to support the following generalizations: (1) there is greater gender harassment, unwanted sexual attention, and sexual coercion in the workplace setting than in the university setting; (2) there is a relationship between employed female students reporting gender harassment, unwanted sexual attention, and sexual coercion in the university and reporting gender harassment, unwanted sexual attention, and sexual coercion in the workplace; (3) employed female student classification, age, and major should be interpreted concurrently for gender harassment and for unwanted sexual attention in the workplace setting; (4) employed female student classification and age should be interpreted concurrently for sexual coercion in the workplace setting; (5) employed female student classification and occupational type should be interpreted concurrently for sexual coercion in the university setting; (6) employed female student age and occupational type should be interpreted concurrently for sexual coercion in the university setting; and (7) employed female student major and occupational type should be interpreted concurrently for gender harassment and sexual coercion in the university setting. Six tables and seven figures present data and statistical analysis. Three appendices present documentation and instruments used in the study. Contains 42 references. (TS)
