Incident type here is either unwanted sexual contact only or sexual violence overall. As there were no follow-up questions for location of the incident and relationship with the perpetrator among those who said “yes” to being sexually harassed, the results for location and relationship are only presented for unwanted sexual contact and sexual violence outcomes. Denominators are now incidents only; p value from a chi-square test or a Fisher’s exact test as appropriate; missing category not included in testing.
