Perceptions and Responses of High School Students to Sexual Abuse

The study aims to assess high school students' awareness and responses to sexual abuse. Survey data were collected from 1,182 high school students at several schools in Hanoi. The results indicate that, in general, high school students have a certain level of knowledge about abusive behaviors and correctly perceive the perpetrators of such acts. However, a significant portion of students still have misconceptions about abusive behaviors and inappropriate attitudes towards sexual abuse. The study also highlights students' reactions in various sexual abuse situations.
