By means of a descriptive cross-sectional study and based on the predictor variables sex, age and academic program, significant differences were identified in the first and second variables (more sexist values in men and older people), and by introducing a univariate calculation, the model incorporating the three variables was also significant. Thus, it has been recognised that certain careers (such as Electrical and Electronic Engineering) have consistently presented different values associated with a conservative view of men’s and women’s roles.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Masculinities & Social Change}, author={Vázquez-Miraz, Pedro and Medina Reyes, María Fernanda and Pastrana Quintana, Camilo Andrés and Rincón Socha, María Eugenia}, year={2022}, month={Feb.} }
