Abstract

The study examines university students’ attitudes toward sexual harassment and their perceptions of sexual harassment behaviors in a culturally diverse university in North Cyprus. Data is collected from 460 university students. The findings suggest that university students’ perceptions about what constitutes sexual harassment behavior were similar, regardless of their gender. However, women were more likely than men to perceive a wider range of verbal and non-verbal behaviors as sexual harassment. Furthermore, different perceptions of sexual harassment behavior were identified based on culture and age. When attitudes toward sexual harassment were compared, it was found that female students had lower tolerance levels and that age had an effect on attitudes toward sexual harassment.
