Percepciones de género y factores de influencia. Evidencia en estudiantes universitarios de Barcelona (España) y Cartagena de Indias (Colombia)
A lo largo de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, ha habido una importante evolución en el pensamiento y las actitudes de mujeres y hombres hacia la igualdad de género.
