- Breslin, R.A., Daniel, S., & Hylton, K. (2022). Black women in the military: Prevalence, characteristics, and correlates of sexual harassment. Public Administration Review, 82(3), 410-419. https://doi.org/10.1111/puar.13464
- This study examined active-duty Black women’s experiences of sexual harassment (N = 6,417). More specifically, the prevalence of sexual harassment was investigated, as well as whether certain personal characteristics (e.g., age, rank, history of sexual assault/discrimination) and workplace factors (e.g., unit climate, hostile work environment, occupations in which Black women were more common) were associated with experiences of sexual harassment. Black women’s experiences of sexual harassment in the military appeared to be linked to a variety of demographic and workplace factors.
