Introduction: Sexual violence is a widespread problem that can occur in any setting. Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA) training was developed to improve individual’s behavioral control when encountering situations related to sexual violence. This study applies PSEA training as an educational intervention using a Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) approach to enhance perceived behavioral control, defined as an individual’s perception of their ability to perform a behavior. Aims: This study aims to determine the effect of the PAL method in PSEA training on changes in perceived behavioral control among academicians at Universitas Nusa Cendana. Method: A quasi-experimental two-group pretest–posttest design was conducted involving 78 students and staff selected through quota sampling. Participants were divided into a tutor group (n = 27) and a tutee group (n = 51). Perceived behavioral control was measured using a questionnaire based on the Theory of Planned Behavior by Fishbein and Ajzen. Data were analyzed using the Friedman test for the tutor group and paired-sample t-test for the tutee group. Results: The tutor group showed a significant improvement in perceived behavioral control (p = 0.018) with a weak effect size (Kendall’s W = 0.150). The tutee group demonstrated a highly significant improvement (p < 0.001) with a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.933). Conclusion: PSEA training implemented through the PAL method significantly improves perceived behavioral control among academicians at Nusa Cendana University.
