Abstract
The aim of this article is to check the level of ambivalent sexism towards women and men in adolescents using scales of Sexual Role Ideology in a Spanish sample. A sample of 406 students in Secondary Education (205 boys and 201 girls) answered a questionnaire package: ASI-Ambivalent Sexism Inventory towards women (Glick and Fiske, 1996) in a Spanish version (Expósito, Moya and Glick, 1998), AMI-Ambivalent Attitudes Inventory towards men (Glick and Fiske, 1999) in a Spanish version (Lameiras, Rodríguez and Sotelo, 2001), and SSRI-Scale of Sexual Role Ideology (Moya, Navas and Gómez-Berrocal, 1991). Our results show that boys are more sexist towards women and more benevolent towards men. Since this scale of SSRI predicts both hostile and benevolent sexism, although more strongly the latter, it can be used as a measurement of modern sexism (Hostile and Benevolent).
