Bertso eguna 2016: bertso-ikuskizuna eta genero-ikuspegia

[EUS] Gradu Amaierako Lan honetan esparru hauek uztartu dira: bertsolaritza, hedabideak eta Genero Ikasketak. Hiru esparru horien bidegurutzean, 2016ko Bertso Egunaren genero-irakurketa bat egitea du helburu ikerlanak. Genero-azterketa egiteko, bertso-emanaldiaren hiru alderdi nagusi aztertu dira: batetik, antolakuntzak hartutako erabakiak aztertu dira; bestetik, bertsolarien bertso-jardunaren inguruko gogoeta egin da; eta azkenik, EITBk eginiko ikus-entzunezko ekoizpena izan da hizpide. Alderdi horien analisia egiteko lau urrats nagusi egin dira: lehenik, Bertso Egunaren inguruko dokumentazio-lana osatu da; bigarrenik, bertso-egoeren, bertso-jardunaren, eta ikus-entzunezkoaren deskripzioa egin da; hirugarrenik, deskripzioan xehaturiko ezaugarrien interpretazioa egin da, atalez atal; eta laugarrenik, atal guztien ezaugarriak kontuan harturik, ondorio orokor zenbait garatu dira.

Segregation: theoretical approach. an empirical analysis of gender segregation in undergraduate studies at the University of the Basque Country.

The aim of this study is to analyze the gender segregation in undergraduate studies in the University from Basque Country (UPV/EHU). We use data from UPV/EHU for the period 2003-2013. We focus on the period from 2003 to 2013 to analyze the changes in the segregation over ten years. We analyze the tendencies of the men and the women inside undergraduate studies. Undergraduate studies are decomposed into five fields: Legal and social sciences, experimental sciences, engineering, arts and humanities, and health sciences. We draw segregation curves and compute the Gini segregation index within the Lorenz approach. Our results show that the gender segregation in undergraduate studies in the UPV/EHU has decreased from 2003 to 2013.

Gender segregation in technological undergraduate studies in the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU)

In this work we study the gender segregation in technological undergraduate studies in the University of The Basque Country (UPV/EHU). For this study we use the data of new admissions at the UPV/EHU. They are from the time period of the years 2003-2013. We focus on the first and last year to check if the segregation has changed over these ten years. We build segregation curves within the Lorenz approach. Our results show that the gender segregation in technological undergraduate studies in the University of the Basque Country has increased over the last ten years. We also show that the distribution between men and women has changed.  

Prosocial behavior and gender

This study revisits different experimental data sets that explore social behavior in economic games and uncovers that many treatment effects may be gender-specific. In general, men and women do not differ in "neutral" baselines. However, we find that social framing tends to reinforce prosocial behavior in women but not men, whereas encouraging reflection decreases the prosociality of males but not females. The treatment effects are sometimes statistically different across genders and sometimes not but never go in the opposite direction. These findings suggest that (i) the social behavior of both sexes is malleable but each gender responds to different aspects of the social context; and (ii) gender differences observed in some studies might be the result of particular features of the experimental design. Our results contribute to the literature on prosocial behavior and may improve our understanding of the origins of human prosociality. We discuss the possible link between the observed differential treatment effects across genders and the differing male and female brain network connectivity, documented in recent neural studies.
