DIVERSIDAD: La paridad como objetivo desencadena una amarga batalla
Science (New York, N.Y.)
|September 11, 2007
Resumen
Los estudiosos contrarios sugieren que las mujeres naturalmente prefieren carreras orientadas a las personas, no campos STEM. Las opiniones generales atribuyen estas diferencias a influencias culturales en lugar de rasgos inherentes.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Ciencias Sociales Ciencias Sociales.
- Estudios de género Estudios de género.
- La educación STEM es la educación STEM.
Sus antecedentes:
- Existe un debate sobre la baja representación de las mujeres en los campos de la ciencia, la tecnología, la ingeniería y las matemáticas (STEM).
- Una perspectiva plantea diferencias de género inherentes en los intereses profesionales.
- Una visión alternativa hace hincapié en los factores sociales y culturales que dan forma a estos intereses.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Explorar las diferentes perspectivas sobre las razones de la baja representación de las mujeres en la ingeniería y las ciencias físicas.
- Para contrastar el debate "nature vs. nurture" con respecto al género y las opciones de carrera STEM.
Principales métodos:
- Este estudio analiza el discurso académico y los puntos de vista contrastantes.
- Sintetiza argumentos de académicos contrarios y activistas de la corriente principal.
Principales resultados:
- Un punto de vista contrario sugiere que la menor participación de las mujeres en STEM se debe a preferencias naturales por profesiones orientadas a las personas.
- Esta perspectiva no identifica la disparidad como un problema que requiere intervención.
- Las perspectivas convencionales reconocen las diferencias observadas, pero las atribuyen al condicionamiento cultural.
Conclusiones:
- La divergencia de puntos de vista pone de relieve un desacuerdo fundamental sobre los orígenes de las disparidades de género en STEM.
- Comprender estas diferentes atribuciones es crucial para desarrollar estrategias efectivas de diversidad e inclusión en la educación y las carreras STEM.

02:55Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who are...
01:28Diversity of Antigen Receptors
Antigen receptors are essential components of the immune system crucial in defending the body against foreign invaders. These receptors are present on the surface of B and T cells, enabling them to recognize antigens and mount an appropriate immune response.
Before encountering any antigen, lymphocytes express these receptors. On B cells, the antigen receptor is a membrane-bound antibody molecule called BCR; on T cells, it is a T cell receptor or TCR. B and T cell receptors are composed of two...

01:22Diversity in Cell Signaling Responses
The physiological function of a cell and cellular communication are outcomes of a range of extrinsic signals, intracellular signaling pathways, and cellular responses. No two cell types express the same repertoire of signaling components. Receptors are highly selective for their cognate ligands, but once activated, they can alter multiple cellular processes such as DNA transcription, protein synthesis, and metabolic activity.

01:29Self-Discrepancy and Its Effects
Self-discrepancy theory explains how people compare their actual self to their ideal and ought selves and how mismatches between these self-guides can lead to emotional distress. Developed by E. Tory Higgins, the theory distinguishes among three components of self-concept: the actual self, the ideal self, and the ought self. These refer respectively to how individuals perceive themselves, how they aspire to be, and how they believe they are obligated to be. Emotional well-being, self-esteem,...
01:29Self-Serving Bias
Self-serving bias is a cognitive phenomenon in which individuals attribute positive outcomes to internal factors such as their abilities, intelligence, or effort while attributing negative outcomes to external circumstances. This cognitive distortion helps maintain self-esteem but can also impede objective self-assessment.Theoretical Explanations of Self-Serving BiasTwo primary theories explain the self-serving bias: the cognitive explanation and the motivational explanation.The cognitive...
02:45Self-Discrepancy Theory
One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.
