“…These differences can be explained by bio-psychosocial reasons, which lead us to reflect on gender differences in specific social contexts, such as the sample being studied. The recent study of Costa, Oliveira, Pereira, and Leal (2015), reveals that Portuguese society is considered to be mostly religious and conservative, which tends to produce different social norms in regards to gender, ultimately influencing sexual functionality.…”

Not many studies exist that relate emotional intelligence with sexual variables, such as sexual functioning and subjective sexual well-being. In order to fill the gap in the research, we developed this study with the following objectives. First, we aim to assess levels of emotional intelligence, sexual functioning, and subjective sexual well-being in a large sample of Portuguese adults. Second, we seek to compare differences in emotional intelligence, sexual functioning, and subjective sexual well-being between genders and age groups. Finally our goal is to determine the association between emotional intelligence, and sexual functioning and subjective sexual well-being. The sample consists of 1,421 individuals, who are predominantly female (818, 57.6%), between the ages of 18 and 83 years. The average age of participants is 38.76 years old (SD = 13.67). We use Schutte's Emotional Intelligence Scale, the Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire, and the Subjective Sexual Well-being Questionnaire as research instruments. Overall results identify high levels of emotional intelligence, sexual functioning, and subjective sexual well-being. Significant differences concerning emotional intelligence are found between genders (women present higher scores than men), age (older participants demonstrate higher scores than younger participants), and also for sexual functioning and sexual subjective well-being (men present higher scores than women). There are significant, but mild, levels of association between emotional intelligence and sexual variables. These results allow us to better inform professionals who work, either in the area of emotional intelligence, or in the field of sexuality, about the importance of these two variables in promoting health, well-being, and quality of life in general.

“…Sexism is characterized by uncompromising negative attitudes against women (COSTA et al, 2015) and can be observed in the discourse, arising from a cultural construction that perpetuates gender asymmetry, which is an instrument that permeates not only the speech of men, but also women. These discourses from the woman herself are intrinsic to patriarchal societies, in which the female population is taught and encouraged to act according to gender stereotypes, as well as sexist norms and values, allowing this system to be sustained and even strengthened (SILVA, 2010).…”

Resumo O sexismo, compreendido como atitudes negativas contra as mulheres, pode ser manifestado sob uma forma hostil ou benevolente. A partir disso, realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, do tipo exploratória, de caráter documental, que teve como objetivo analisar conteúdos sexistas em páginas do Facebook dirigidas ao público masculino. Fez-se uma análise de conteúdo das postagens selecionadas tendo como referência a Teoria do Sexismo Ambivalente. Os resultados indicaram que o sexismo hostil ainda é fortemente compartilhado, evidenciado por postagens que tentam controlar o comportamento, depreciar a capacidade e objetificar o corpo da mulher. Expressões do sexismo benevolente também foram identificadas, com a especificidade de que são formas facilmente propagadas devido ao caráter aparentemente positivo, velado por um discurso de cuidado, proteção e humor. Tais resultados mostram que o sexismo mantém-se e segue difícil de ser combatido, uma vez que não é facilmente percebido pela sociedade.

“…A literatura refere que as diferentes formas de sexismo estão associadas ao sexo e à idade. Os homens revelam níveis mais elevados de sexismo, fundamentalmente o hostil, do que as mulheres (Costa, Oliveira, Pereira, & Leal, 2015;Rojas-Solís & Raimúndez, 2011) e os mais jovens mostram atitudes mais benevolentes em relação aos homens, enquanto nos mais velhos estas atitudes são mais hostis (Costa et al, 2015). Contudo, outros estudos, tal como estes autores referem, identificam que as atitudes mais polarizadas e hostis são mais frequentes nos jovens enquanto os adultos tendem a apresentar atitudes mais benevolentes.…”

Resumo Enquadramento: O sexismo, definido como crenças, atitudes, comportamentos e práticas que refletem avaliações negativas sustentadas no género, reforça a desigualdade entre mulheres e homens, devendo haver intervenção precoce para a diminuir. Objetivo: Validar a versão espanhola da Escala de Detección de Sexismo en Adolescentes (DSA) para o contexto português. Metodologia: A validação compreendeu a tradução, adaptação cultural do instrumento e validade do constructo, na qual participaram 259 adolescentes (13-19 anos), provenientes de escolas do ensino básico e secundário. Resultados: Pela análise fatorial exploratória, verificou-se que o sexismo hostil (SH; 16 itens), e o sexismo benévolo (SB; 10 itens) são responsáveis por 38,34% e 10,25% da variância total, respetivamente. Conclusão: A escala DSA possui boas propriedades psicométricas, mantendo os itens da versão original. O SH apresenta valores superiores em indivíduos do sexo masculino, enquanto que o SB é mais evidente em indivíduos do sexo feminino. O SH aumenta com a idade dos adolescentes. A DSA revelou-se um instrumento válido para medir o sexismo em adolescentes portugueses. Palavras-chave: sexismo; adolescente; estudos de validação; violência de género Abstract Background: Sexism is defined as individuals' beliefs, attitudes, behaviors, and practices that reflect negative evaluations based on gender and reinforce gender inequality. Early interventions should be implemented to reduce it. Objective: To validate the Escala de Detección de Sexismo en Adolescentes (DSA) for the Portuguese population. Methodology: Validation included translation, cultural adaptation, and construct validity procedures, in a sample of 259 adolescents (aged 13 to 19 years) attending basic and secondary education schools. Results: The exploratory factor analysis showed that hostile sexism (HS; 16 items) and benevolent sexism (BS; 10 items) account for 38.34% and 10.25% of total variance, respectively. Conclusion: The DSA scale has good psychometric properties and kept the items of the original version. HS is higher in male adolescents and BS is higher in female adolescents. HS increases with age. The DSA scale proved to be a valid tool for measuring sexism in Portuguese adolescents.
