| description |
The relationship between masculinity and femininity in terms of sexual orientation is scarcely analyzed in Mexico City. This study compared the results obtained from the application of the Masculinity and Femininity Inventory (IMAFE) to two samples of men: one homosexual, and one heterosexual; both groups aged between 17 and 25 years. The first sample consisted of 56 subjects, and the second one was of 57, for a total of 113 people. Most of them had a degree, and a minimum percentage of the participants had an associate’s degree. After grading the tests, the data were analyzed by using the Student’s t-test. The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the IMAFE scales. It is concluded that there are no differences in the masculinity and femininity of the subjects according to their sexual orientation, although a tendency to androgyny is observed. The findings of this exploration can be used as aspects contributing to an education that favors the tolerance to the diversity and, therefore, the dismantling of obscenities toward the homosexual people. |

En este estudio fueron comparados los resultados obtenidos de la aplicación del Inventario de Masculinidad y Feminidad (IMAFE) a dos muestras de varones: una homosexual y otra heterosexual, ambas con edades entre los 17 y los 25 años. La primera, constó de 56 y la segunda de 57 sujetos, para un total de 113 personas. La selección de los participantes fue por medio de un muestreo no probabilístico arbitrario intencional. En su mayoría, participaron estudiantes de licenciatura y un porcentaje mínimo de bachillerato. El tipo de estudio fue descriptivo y el diseño no experimental, se observó el fenómeno en su contexto. Después de calificar cada una de las pruebas se procedió a analizar los datos mediante la prueba de comparación t de Student. Los resultados obtenidos mostraron que no hubo diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p < 0.50) en las escalas del IMAFE. Se concluye que no hay diferencias en la masculinidad y feminidad de los sujetos en función de su orientación sexual, aunque se observa una tendencia a la androginia. Los hallazgos de esta exploración podrán utilizarse como aspectos que contribuyan a una educación que favorezca la tolerancia a la diversidad y, por ende, el desmantelamiento de obcecaciones en torno a las personas homosexuales.Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica2017-04-26info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionjournal articleartículoartigoartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/epub+zipaudio/mpegaudio/mpegapplication/xmlhttps://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/EDUCARE/article/view/764410.15359/ree.21-2.16Revista Electrónica Educare; Vol. 21 No. 2 (2017): Educare Electronic Journal (May-August); 1-15Revista Electrónica Educare; Vol. 21 Núm. 2 (2017): Revista Electrónica Educare (mayo-agosto); 1-15Revista Electrónica Educare; v. 21 n. 2 (2017): Revista Electrónica Educare (mayo-agosto); 1-151409-4258reponame:Portal de Revistas UNAinstname:Universidad Nacional de Costa Ricainstacron:UNAspaenghttps://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/EDUCARE/article/view/7644/16586https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/EDUCARE/article/view/7644/10899https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/EDUCARE/article/view/7644/10900https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/EDUCARE/article/view/7644/10902https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/EDUCARE/article/view/7644/10903https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/EDUCARE/article/view/7644/11462Derechos de autor 2017 Revista Electrónica Educareacceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-08-02T23:24:11Zoai:www.revistas.una.ac.cr:article/7644Portal de revistashttp://revistas.una.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.una.ac.crhttps://revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaiandrea.mora.campos@una.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2022-08-02T23:24:11Portal de Revistas UNA - Universidad Nacional de Costa Ricafalse |
