Abstract
La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo describir la relación entre el gatekeeping materno y el
sexismo ambivalente de madres de niños y niñas preescolares. Además, como objetivos específicos,
se buscó comparar los reportes de las madres y los padres respecto al gatekeeping materno, y
analizarlo en base al estado laboral de las madres, la edad de los hijos y la presencia de hijos menores.
Para el sexismo ambivalente, se tuvo como objetivo específico describirlo en relación a los años de
estudio de las madres y el nivel socioeconómico de las familias. Para ello, se evaluaron las variables
mencionadas en 86 madres, con edades entre 21 y 46 años ( M =35.30; DE =5.72), de hijos que tenían
entre 24 y 70 meses ( M =43.19; DE =11.56), utilizando el Parental Regulation Inventory (Van Egeren,
2000) para medir el gatekeeping materno, y el Inventario de Sexismo Ambivalente (Cruz,
Zempoaltecatl, & Correa 2005). Se hallaron correlaciones negativas y significativas entre el sexismo
ambivalente, los años de estudio y el nivel socioeconómico. Respecto al objetivo general, se encontró
una correlación directa y significativa entre las conductas de criticismo de gatekeeping y el sexismo
benevolente de las madres, lo cual sugiere que las madres que tienen más actitudes sexistas
benevolentes, presentan más conductas de desaliento al padre.
This research aims to describe the relationship between maternal gatekeeping and ambivalent sexismin mothers of preeschool children. In addition, the specific objectives of this study are to compare the reports of mothers and fathers regarding maternal gatekeeping, and compare that variable based on the mother’s work status, the age of children and the presence of younger siblings. Also, for ambivalent sexism, the specific objective is to describe it in relation to the years of study of the mothers and the socioeconomic level of the families. For this, the variables mentioned were measured in 86 mothers, with ages between 21 and 46 years ( M =35.30; SD =5.72), of children who were between 24 and 70 months ( M =43.19; SD =11.56), using the Parental Regulation Inventory (PRI) to measure maternal gatekeeping, and the Ambivalent Sexism Inventory to measure ambivalent sexism. Negative and significant correlations were found in terms of ambivalent sexism, the mothers’ years of study and socioeconomic status, and no significant differences were found regarding gatekeeping according to the characteristics mentioned. Regarding the general objective, a direct and significant correlation was found between gatekeeping criticism behaviors and benevolent sexism, which suggests that, the more a mother presents beenvolent sexism attidues, she would be more critical and controlling of the involvement of the father.
