RODRIGUEZ HERNANDEZ, Karla Jazmín; RODRIGUEZ BARRAZA, Adriana y AGOFF BOILEAU, María Carolina. Sexual harassment and stalking in female university students: negative emotions and coping with these forms of gender-based violence. Nóesis, Rev. cienc. soc. [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.63, pp.24-46. Epub 01-Sep-2023. ISSN 2395-8669. https://doi.org/10.20983/noesis.2023.1.2.
Stalking and sexual harassment, as expressions of gender violence in the field of higher education, are very pressing problems as they have been exhibited by the protest movements that have arisen in Higher Education Institutions. The objective of this work is to analyze the narratives of university women who experienced stalking and/or sexual harassment in Higher Education Institutions in the municipalities of Tampico and Ciudad Madero in the state of Tamaulipas. The purpose was to learn about their experiences and their way of dealing with these forms of gender violence, using qualitative research and a phenomenological design. The technique used for data collection was the semi-structured interview. The selection of the informants was based on intentional sampling and the number of cases examined was guided by the saturation criterion, the total number of participants being thirteen. The analysis of the interviews shows that acts of stalking and sexual harassment provoke various emotions in women that can shed light on the problem of violence from the perspective of the victims, instead of considering only their own explanations, which are often rationalized or consistent with socially legitimized meanings. In sum, the study of emotions allows us to conclude that women within the university context suffer from a psychophysical discomfort that does not allow them to live a full university life.
