Abstract

This article presents the results of a survey administered between October and November 2008 to a student sample from Universidad Nacional (UNA) in Costa Rica in order to know the prevalence of students (in terms of male and female percentage) that claim to have suffered some sort of manifestation of sexual harassment during their studies at Universidad Nacional. In addition, this paper explores the studied population´s perception of the homophobic environment at UNA.
