Stalking Victimization in the United States, 2009 Report
This document provides statistics on studies done in a 12 month span on the various forms of stalking. The study focuses on the intersection between stalking and victim and offender characteristics such as race, class, age, and gender. The study finds that women are nearly three times more likely than men to be stalked, and young people age 18 to 24 experience the highest rates of stalking.
Much is unknown about stalking occurring in non-western countries to determine whether it is a global phenomenon mainly because many countries have not enacted legislation that protects against this form of harassment. Cross-cultural subgroups of victims and stalkers and the co-occurrence of other crimes are to be explored as a research area. The author suggests implications for policy, practice, and research.
