Psychological and demographic correlates of perceptions of sexual harassment

This study examines the relationship of American students' attitudes toward women, sex, religiosity, self-esteem, and locus of control to variations in perceptions of sexual harassment. The set of two-way interactions of these variables accounted for a substantial portion of the variance in perceptions. A model of perceptions of sexual harassment is introduced suggesting potential theoretical and empirical linkages to be tested in future research.
