Gender differences in Spanish Physical Education teachers towards School Doing Gender.http://hdl.handle.net/11441/43776Background: Legislative policies adopted in Spain with regard to gender and education, have rapidly spread. Among the measures which have been adopted are training and raising teachers’ awareness on equality. However, it is not clear that women and men show the same attitudes towards gender equality so adopted measures will not always be effective. Purpose: In this paper we analyse the Physical Education (PE) teachers’ attitudes towards gender equality and compare their attitudes by sex Participants: This study follows a survey-type quantitative descriptive methodology in which 526 Spanish PE teachers have taken part. Data collections: Data were collected using the Likert-type Scale SDG/t (School Doing Gender /teachers), made up of 30 items separated in three subscales: sociocultural (10), relational (10) and personal (10). The scale’s reliability analysis shows that this reaches a high measurement reliability (ALPHA=.920). Data analysis: The analysis consists of descriptive and frequency studies and contrast tests of the data obtained Findings: Results reveal that PE teachers mainly show an adaptive attitude towards gender changes, and that there are differences in this group attitudes depending on their sex, in which female teachers achieve higher scores than males. Conclusions: We can state that it is necessary a better training in gender issues in order to raise awareness and update PE teachers' knowledge, especially in the case of male teachers.application/pdfengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/GenderPhysical EducationAttitudes in EducationGénero y educaciónEducación físicaActitudes en educacióninfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://idus.us.es/xmlui/handle/11441/43776
