“…Regarding oral health, women had higher values for daily teeth brushing and no significant differences were found in dry mouth and gastritis variables. This higher frequency in daily tooth brushing corresponds with previous studies and may be linked to the higher values of neuroticism and conscientiousness shown by females [44,45].…”

This research aimed to explore gender differences in nutritional, odontological and psychological patterns of adolescent students during the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to achieve the study’s aim, 127 adolescent students (17.61 ± 7.43 years) completed an online questionnaire which analysed variables regarding their psychological, nutritional, oral health, and physical activity profiles and habits during the COVID-19 crisis. Students showed a higher weekly alcohol consumption and higher levels of loneliness perception when alcohol consumption was lower. In addition, experimental avoidance and psychological inflexibility values were lower when the perception of having dry mouth or lack of saliva is higher. The results also show that males presented a more varied intake of food than females and a stronger adherence to physical activity routines. Female students presented a lower number of meals per day when beer and alcohol consumption was higher, and a higher tendency for fat- and sugar-rich foods such as fast food or bakery products than males. Regarding the oral health profile, females showed higher values in daily tooth brushing and no significant differences were found in dry mouth and gastritis variables. The results from the present study could be used by various educational institutions to implement multidisciplinary interventions to develop healthier habits.

“…This circumstance has also been appreciated in previous studies [ 7 ]. It denotes that, despite the high levels of stress and burnout [ 39 ] among university professors, educational inclusion is not affected by years of professional experience. The commitment to inclusion is more present in the professors who are developing their professional careers (experience between 6 and 15 years).…”

The recognition of the right to the inclusion of people with disabilities on a global scale has led to progress in the planning and development of policies and programs among different areas. The present work addresses the accessibility barriers to university education as an opportunity for greater inclusion. Universities must facilitate all students’ physical, curricular, and relational access and comply with a “reasonable accommodation” policy to allow students with disabilities equal opportunities. The aim is to analyze the barriers that hinder educational inclusion. Four factors are explored: the students’ accessibility to facilities and resources; the teachers’ willingness to respond to students with disabilities and special educational needs (SEN); the teachers’ curricular adjustments to meet those needs; the students’ interactions with their peers and professors. We worked with a sample of 201 university professors of teacher training programs in Spain. The results show statistically significant differences in the factors indicated, according to sex, age group, teaching experience, and experience with students who require educational support. According to the study results, a series of recommendations are included to improve the training necessary for university professors to promote inclusive education.

“…Gender plays a meaningful function in the way in which work is experienced, rewarded, organized, not only in terms of work-related segregation, inequality in earnings, mobility, work status, but also in work behavior, social relations, and attitudes (Wharton, 2013). A cross-sectional study carried out among Spanish university professors analyzed gender differences in stress and burnout-related factors and showed up that female professors reported a higher burnout perceived by emotional exhaustion, neuroticism, and stress than males (Redondo-Flórez et al, 2020).…”

Burnout syndrome represents the main problem in the physical and mental state of an individual. It represents one of the most studied work-related syndromes in current years. Burnout syndrome is closely related to energy reduction, overtiredness, chronic stress from work that is not well-managed. The study aimed to analyze statistically significant differences between attributes of burnout syndrome and coping strategies in managers in terms of gender. Main attributes or determinants of burnout syndrome are Depersonalization, Emotional Exhaustion, and Personal Accomplishment. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and the Brief COPE Inventory (COPE) were included, depending on research purposes. The MBI consisted of twenty-two questions individually dealing with determinants, and the Brief COPE methodology summarized fourteen coping strategies that help cope with stress. It was used to find out how managers behave in demanding situations and which coping strategies they use. The research was conducted on a representative sample of managers (N = 249) by online questionnaire in the Slovak republic. The research assumed the existence of positive differences between the assessment of determinants and coping strategies. The results confirmed the existence of statistically significant gender differences (p < .001) between attributes of burnout syndrome and certain coping strategies in managers in terms of demanding situations. It means that there are differences between managers in dealing with difficult situations and when using coping strategies. Male managers appeared to be depersonalized and emotionally exhausted more often than female managers.
