CAN PERCEIVERS IDENTIFY LIKELIHOOD TO SEXUALLY HARASS

We investigated how men who differ in their-likelihood to sexually har ass (LSH) are perceived by themselves and others. In Study 1, 36 Cauca sian male participants, who were paid for their participation, were vi deotaped being interviewed by a subordinate female. Participants rated her performance and then responded to self-report attitudinal and per sonality scales. Higher LSH men reported more traditional attitudes to ward women's roles, a less feminine personality, and lower competency ratings for the female interviewer: Study 2 investigated whether parti cipants could differentiate between high and low LSH men from videocli ps. Eighty-one male and 76 female Caucasian participants, who were ful filling a course requirement, rated high LSH men (compared to low LSH men) as (1) higher in LSH, (2) more masculine, (3) less feminine, and (4) more traditional toward women's roles than low LSH men. Implicatio ns of this ability to detect likelihood to sexually harass are discuss ed.
