Abstract

La violencia de genero contra las mujeres tiene una naturaleza principalmente sociocultural. En este articulo estudiamos las propiedades psicometricas de una escala creada con el objetivo de detectar el sexismo en adolescentes (DSA). Participaron 245 adolescentes con edades comprendidas entre 14 y 17 anos. Se realizaron analisis factoriales de la escala, encontrando que diferencia de manera adecuada entre las dos dimensiones de sexismo identificadas en la actualidad —hostil y benevolo—. Asimismo, encontramos evidencia de validez convergente con el ASI. En general, las puntuaciones son mas elevadas en sexismo benevolo que en hostil, diferencia que se acentua de manera destacada en las mujeres. Tomando los resultados en conjunto, la escala DSA es un instrumento valido para medir el sexismo en adolescentes. Se comparan estos resultados con los obtenidos en este y otros estudios utilizando el ASI y se discute su potencialidad para detectar el sexismo en adolescentes de manera apropiada. Psychometric properties of the Adolescent Sexism Detection (ASD) Scale. In this article, it is assumed that gender violence, or violence against women, has mainly a sociocultural basis. A scale (Adolescent Sexism Detection; ASD) to detect sexism in adolescents was developed and its psychometric properties were analysed. 245 adolescents between 14 and 17 years of age participated in the study. As a result of the factor analyses carried out, the hostile and benevolent dimensions of sexism were clearly differentiated. Convergent validity of the scale was confirmed by its high correlations with the Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI). Participants scored higher in benevolent than in hostile sexism, an effect even stronger in female participants. These findings suggest that the ASD scale is a valid instrument to measure sexism among adolescents. The main findings of this study are compared to those obtained in other studies using the ASI. The potential of this scale to appropriately detect sexism among adolescents is discussed.
