abstract="Previous research suggests that individuals engage in a variety of constrained behaviors to protect themselves from potential victimization. Although research controls for gender and constrained behaviors in fear of crime models, few studies consider constrained behaviors through a gendered lens. Using university survey data as an exploratory case study, this article hypothesizes that men and women use different types of constrained behaviors and, using factor analysis, constructs a gender-sensitive typology of four distinctive types of constrained behaviors. The results suggest that women are more likely to engage in all four types of constrained behaviors and that a variety of gender differences in behavioral responses to fear in crime are apparent when comparing across the four categories.<p />",
