“…Da aus lernpsychologischer Sicht bestimmte Verhaltensweisen des Opfers weiteres Stalking-Verhalten verstärken können, sollten Betroffene einige grundsätzliche "Anti-Stalking-Regeln" beachten [15,25] [20], sollten die Mitarbeiter über das Thema, adäquate Reaktions-und Verhaltensweisen sowie mögliche Hilfsangebote ausreichend informiert werden.
