| dc.description | This study focuses on the existing relation between perceptions of discrimination for performing non-traditional activities and the subjective psychological wellbeing levels. 81 volunteer women who exercise works, defined by themselves and by external judges as traditionally played by men, participated (aged between 18 to 52 years, with an average of 34 years.). All of them develop their work in the city of Punta Arenas, Chile. An intentional nonrandom sample and non-experimental cross-correlation design were used. Questionnaires were used to measure both, psychological well-being and perception of discrimination. The results for psychological well-being suggest that the observed average of the sample falls within 55 percentile compared with regional standards by gender. Regarding the perception of discrimination, the global average indicates that perceived levels of discrimination are in intermediated levels compared to the theoretical scale, in others words; they show intermediate levels of discrimination perception because of their jobs. The correlation’s analyses indicate the existence of a negative association between both variables. To assess the relationship between well-being and the perception of subtle discrimination, this association becomes marginally significant, while the correlation in the case of blatant discrimination is particularly high. These results are discussed in terms of the costs of questioning traditional roles and their implications for the new generations. | en-US |
| dc.description | El presente estudio analiza la relación existente entre la percepción de discriminación por ejercer actividades poco tradicionales y los niveles de bienestar psicológico subjetivo. Participaron 81 mujeres voluntarias que desempeñan profesiones y oficios definidos por ellas mismas, y por jueces externos, como tradicionalmente masculinos, con edades comprendidas entre 18 a 52 años, con una media de 34 años. Todas de ellas desarrollan su actividad laboral en la ciudad de Punta Arenas, Chile. El muestreo fue no aleatorio intencionado y se utilizó un diseño no experimental transversal correlacional. Se utilizaron cuestionarios para medir tanto el bienestar psicológico como la percepción de discriminación. Los resultados respecto al bienestar psicológico indican que el promedio se sitúa dentro del percentil 55 comparado con normas regionales según género. Respecto a la percepción de discriminación, el promedio global indica que perciben niveles de discriminación cercanos a niveles intermedios de la escala teórica. Los análisis de correlación señalan la existencia de una asociación negativa entre ambas variables. La asociación negativa entre el bienestar y la discriminación ocurre particularmente para el caso de la percepción de discriminación manifiesta. Se discuten estos resultados en términos de los costos de la puesta en cuestión de los roles tradicionales y sus implicancias para las nuevas generaciones. | es-ES |
