An Examination of Homologous Reproduction and the Effects of Sexism

Abstract

This study focuses on determining if sexism could be considered a plausible antecedent of homologous reproduction. Primary data were collected from 197 head women's team coaches competing at the Division I intercollegiate level, and the coaches indicated their sexism level via the ambivalent sexism inventory. Secondary data were collected via an online database provided by the Office of Post Secondary Research for the 2003 - 2007 seasons for the 197 head coaches responding to the survey instrument. An average of women assistant coaches were calculated and used in the data analysis. Results indicated a gender difference in the average number of women assistant coaches among the sample, and suggested homologous reproduction was present among women head coaches. Regression analysis indicated no relationship between either benevolent or hostile sexism with homologous reproduction.
