Enquadramento: A relação entre atitudes face ao género, igualdade e estereótipos é próxima
e interdependente. As atitudes moldam-se na interação, em normas e crenças sociais e culturais,
que definem e impactam as nossas vidas. O resultado pode desafiar as normas estabelecidas ou
perpetuar ideias redutoras do individuo. A igualdade preconiza a equidade de direitos e
oportunidades independentemente do género. Aeducação pode ter um papel crucial na extinção
de desigualdades, empoderamento e conscientização. Gerações mais idosas e menos
escolarizadas têm sido associadas a um maior conservadorismo e atitudes estereotipadas,
enquanto os jovens tendem a ser mais progressistas. Objetivo: Investigar as atitudes dos
portugueses face ao género, quanto à igualdade e estereótipos de género. Procurar correlações
com a idade, género e escolaridade para observar a força, intensidade e direção da relação, com
vista à mudança comparativamente ao que é mencionado na literatura. Método: A amostra tem
802 participantes com idade média de 32,75 anos. Os dados incluíram um questionário
sociodemográfico, a Escala de Igualdade de Género (bidimensional de 7 itens) e Escala de
Estereótipos de Género (unidimensional com 14 itens) concebidas e validadas nesta
investigação. Resultados: Ausência de correlação entre idade e as escalas de igualdade e
estereótipos. O género apresenta relação com a igualdade e estereótipos. A escolaridade
apresenta relação estatisticamente significativa com a igualdade. Conclusão: Breve reflexão
dos resultados, com destaque para aqueles que contrariam o que tem vindo a ser descrito na
literatura. Possíveis interpretações e impacto de uma teórica mudança de atitudes para a
sociedade portuguesa contemporânea, papeis de género e desigualdades.
ABSTRACT: Background: The relationship between attitudes towards gender, equality and stereotypes is close and interdependent. Attitudes are shaped by interaction, social and cultural norms and beliefs, which define and impact our lives. The result can challenge established norms or perpetuate reductive ideas of the individual. Equality advocates equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender. Education can play a crucial role in eliminating inequalities, empowering and raising awareness. Older and less educated generations have been associated with greater conservatism and stereotypical attitudes, while young people tend to be more progressive. Objectives: Investigate Portuguese attitudes towards gender, equality and gender stereotypes. To look for correlations with age, gender and schooling to observe the strength, intensity and direction of the relationship, with a view to change compared to what is mentioned in the literature. Method: The sample consisted of 802 participants with an average age of 32.75 years. The data included a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Gender Equality Scale (twodimensional with 7 items) and the Gender Stereotypes Scale (one-dimensional with 14 items) designed and validated in this research. Results: No correlation between age and the equality and stereotypes scales. Gender is related to equality and stereotypes. Education shows a statistically significant relationship with equality. Conclusion: Brief reflection on the results, highlighting those that contradict what has been described in the literature. Possible interpretations and impact of a theoretical change in attitudes towards contemporary Portuguese society, gender roles and inequalities.
