Definitions of "harassment" and "assault"

[edit]

I'm uncomfortable with the wording of these findings:

Around two-thirds of participants (64%) had personally experienced sexual harassment in the field. 20% of participants had experienced sexual assault.

What these statements mean is that 64% answered yes to question 32, which does include harassment-like behavior but does not seem to necessitate it, and that 20% answered yes to question 39 which, again, certainly includes assault, but a "yes" doesn't seem to necessarily mean "I experienced sexual assault."--Thomas B (talk) 18:35, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have edited the section to clarify what respondents reported and how these were presented in the findings.[1] Thomas B (talk) 11:43, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
