Abstract
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo, explorar la incidencia, características y efectos del acoso sexual callejero en jóvenes y adultos jóvenes de Lima, analizando el nivel de sexismo ambivalente y las actitudes sexistas, y determinar si existen diferencias de género o por edad. Participaron un total de 195 jóvenes y adultos jóvenes, 135 (69.2%) mujeres y 60 (30.8%) hombres. Los resultados sugieren que las mujeres reportan experimentar una mayor frecuencia de acoso sexual callejero que los hombres. Las situaciones de acoso suelen realizarse en las calles y son ejecutados por hombres solos. Como consecuencia, los acosados cambian de rutina para evitar ser víctimas de esta forma de acoso. Del mismo modo, en este estudio se hallaron relaciones positivas y significativas entre los constructos de sexismo ambivalente y las actitudes sexistas examinadas.

It analyzes the level of ambivalent sexism and sexist views in young adults and determines whether there are gender or age differences. The participants were 195 adults, 138 (69.2%) women and 60 (30.8%) men. The results suggest that women experienced a higher frequency of Street Sexual Harassment than men. Harassment situations usually take place on the streets and are generated by men. As a result, people who have suffered from street harassment prefer to change their routines to avoid this. It was also found that there are significant relationships between the constructs of ambivalent sexism and sexist opinions.
