Abstract

The goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of gender education on the level of ambivalent sexism in Madrid college students. To achieve this goal, we study a sample of 280 students from the Universidad Rey Juan Carlos in Madrid (220 women and 60 men). 126 are students majoring in Criminology who had received 60 hours of gender education. 154 are students majoring in Nursing who received no gender education. We chose students in Criminology and Nursing because their professional practice is linked to gender violence. The methodology consisted of applying the Scale for Detection of Sexism in Adolescents. The results show that students who learned about gender are less sexist. Of the students with gender education, women are less sexist. Our study is action-oriented research in that it provides information useful for professionals interested in creating actions to prevent sexism among college students.
