Abstract

Case material from 262 women who sought crisis intervention in sexual harassment situations suggest common patterns of harassment behavior and reactions to it. Incidents of sexual harassment typically threaten a women's job security and violate her physical privacy. Mental and physical stress symptoms, as well as diminished productivity and self-confidence, are common reaction. Suggestions for appropriate counseling strategies are offered.
