“…Indeed, when prejudice is confronted, it is perceived as more problematic compared to when individuals fail to clearly express their displeasure to perpetrators, causing bias to pass undetected (e.g., Henry & Meltzoff, 1998;Hunter & McClelland, 1991). Confrontation also has positive effects on others: It reduces prejudice in observers and it increases the likelihood that they will also confront, either at that same moment or in the future (Blanchard, Crandall, Brigham, & Vaughn, 1994;Rasinski & Czopp, 2010).…”

“…Hunter and McClelland (1991) argued that the widely cited incidence rates for American campuses are limited to large universities. The participating university in the present study has a student population of about 10,000 and approximates small liberal arts colleges in the U.S. which have a much lower incidence rate of sexual harassment (Weber-Burdin and Rossi, 1983).…”

Sexual harassment of Chinese college students with a focus on their awareness, experiences, responses, and expectations of institutional intervention to the problem was examined. 358 male and 491 female Chinese college students in Hong Kong participated. There were no gender differences in students' awareness of the phenomenon. Students' own experiences were less frequent than what they had heard about sexual harassment. Peer harassment occurred twice as frequently as faculty harassment. Compared to men, twice as many women said they had been sexually harassed. About one in four women students experienced various forms of sexual harassment and 1% were coerced into sexual activities during their college years by either teachers or peers. Students typically avoided and ignored the harassers and felt that the university should take up active roles in combating the problem. Comparisons with U.S. studies suggested that Chinese college students had a lower awareness and experience level in sexual harassment than U.S. students.

“…In such a case, sexual harassment is likely to continue. Indeed, victims' responses have been found to affect judgments of harassment: Even a polite refusal increased the perceived severity of the harassment (Hunter & McClelland, 1991;York, 1989).…”

Is that a “No”? The Interpretation of Responses to Unwanted Sexual Attention

et al. 2006

In this study, we used an interactive perspective to address the issue of responses to sexual harassment. We examined the effect of the consistency across time, consistency across types of advances, and assertiveness of a rejecting response on its perceived effectiveness. Participants were presented with scenarios that described responses to unwanted sexual attention and were required to rate the effectiveness of the responses for their clarity, content, and estimated effect on the future behavior of the perpetrator. The results show significant effects of consistency across time, consistency across types of advances, and assertiveness on perceived effectiveness of the response. As expected, an assertive response that was consistent across time and types of advances was perceived to be the most effective. This effect was found to be stronger for women than for men.
