Resumen
Las percepciones de género influyen en la actividad física en Europa. Las mujeres que se identifican como masculinas y los hombres que se identifican con una feminidad moderada se ejercitan más, lo que sugiere que la expresión de género motiva la actividad.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Psicología social
- Salud pública
- Estudios de género
Sus antecedentes:
- Las normas sociales a menudo asocian rasgos específicos con la masculinidad y la feminidad.
- Comprender cómo estas auto-percepciones se relacionan con comportamientos de salud como la actividad física es crucial.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Investigar la asociación entre la masculinidad y la feminidad autopercibidas y los niveles de actividad física en adultos europeos.
- Explorar las diferencias de género en estas asociaciones.
Principales métodos:
- Análisis de los datos de la Encuesta Social Europea (n = 37 675) para el período 2023-2024.
- Las escalas de autoevaluación (0-6) midieron las percepciones de masculinidad y feminidad.
- Regresiones de varios niveles que analizan la frecuencia del ejercicio semanal.
Principales resultados:
- La variación de la actividad física fue mayor dentro de los géneros en función de los rasgos percibidos que entre los géneros.
- Las mujeres que informaron de una alta masculinidad (3,55 días) y los hombres que informaron de una feminidad moderada (3,53 días) hicieron más ejercicio.
- La baja feminidad percibida en las mujeres (2,74 días) y la baja masculinidad percibida en los hombres (2,96 días) se asociaron con la menor actividad.
Conclusiones:
- La feminidad moderada en los hombres y la masculinidad moderada a alta en las mujeres se correlacionan con una mayor actividad física.
- Expresar la identidad de género puede servir como un motivador para participar en la actividad física.

Deindividuation is a form of social influence on an individual’s behavior such that the individual engages in unusual or non-normal behavior while in a group setting. Why?
