Abstract
El proceso de adaptación a una discapacidad física sobrevenida
es complejo y multidimensional. En él influyen muchas variables que pue-
den condicionar un adecuado ajuste vital y conseguir bienestar psicológico.
Este estudio aborda los efectos específicos del sexismo y los estereotipos
de género en la autoestima y autoconcepto de las personas con lesión me-
dular (LM). El diseño es transversal y correlacional. La muestra está cons-
tituida por 127 personas con lesión medular de larga evolución, 95 varones
y 32 mujeres. Los resultados de los MANOVAS no muestran diferencias
estadísticamente significativas en función del género en las siguientes varia-
bles: Autoestima, Autoconcepto, Sexismo Tradicional y Neosexismo. Las
relaciones entre variables sugieren que existen relaciones negativas entre
neosexismo, autoestima y autoconcepto emocional y familiar en varones
con LM, pero no en mujeres con LM. La discusión plantea el relevante pa-
pel que pueden tener los programas de intervención que fomenten la igual-
dad de género para disminuir el sexismo.
Adjustment to an unexpected physical disability is usually com- plex and multidimensional. Many variables may affect this adjustment, a process that would facilitate or limit adequate vital adjustment and psycho- logical well-being. This research dealt with the specific effects that sexism and gender stereotypes have on the self-concept and self-esteem of people with spinal injuries. The research was a cross-sectional survey. The sample consisted of 127 people with long tern spinal injuries, 95 of them were men and 32 were women. MANOVAs were calculated to test for gender differ- ences on self-esteem, self-concept, traditional sexism and neosexism. No significant differences were found. Additionally sexism measures were cor- related to self-esteem and self-concept for both men and women. Results have shown that men with highest levels of neosexism had lower levels of emotional and family self-concept. That result did not hold for women, suggesting a buffer of gender on sexism and self-concept relationships. Discussion suggests the relevant role that intervention programs may play to improve gender equality in order to reduce sexism
