Zusammenfassung
El objetivo de este estudio es investigar la relación entre la ideo-logía masculina tradicional, el neosexismo y la igualdad de género. De for-ma más específica, comprobamos el efecto del neosexismo como variable mediadora. Los resultados muestran que los hombres mantienen una mayor ideología tradicional masculina y más creencias neosexistas en comparación con las mujeres. Asimismo la ideología masculina se relaciona negativamen-te con la igualdad de género en hombres, mientras que en mujeres no apa-rece dicha relación. Por último, el análisis de mediación confirma que el ne-osexismo es una variable mediadora entre la ideología masculina y la igual-dad de género, pero sólo en hombres. Los resultados se comentan desde la teoría de género considerando el neosexismo como un obstáculo para el lo-gro de la igualdad de género.
