Abstract

The aim is to examine whether gender, gender role and both of them have an effect on the homophobia levels among the university students The sample includes 202 women (63%) and 118 men (37%), totalling 320 students from different departments of Çukurova University. The data were collected through Personal Information Form, Bem Gender Role Inventory and Hudson Ricket Homophobia Scale. The findings show that university students’ homophobia levels differ significantly in gender and gender roles. It means that those men and masculine gender role they have received from homophobia scale scores were significantly higher. However, the common effects of the gender and gender role were found not to play a significant role on homophobia. ÖzetBu çalışmanın amacı üniversite öğrencilerinin cinsiyet, cinsiyet rolleri ve her iki değişkenin homofobi düzeyi üzerinde, ortak etki gösterip göstermediğini incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini Çukurova Üniversitesinin farklı bölümlerinde öğrenim gören 202’si kız (%63) ve 118’i erkek (%37) olmak üzere toplam 320 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veriler Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Bem Cinsiyet Rolü ve Hudson ve Ricket Homofobi Ölçekleri aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular üniversite öğrencilerinin homofobi puanlarının cinsiyet ve cinsiyet rolü açısından anlamlı düzeyde farklılaştığını göstermektedir. Buna göre erkekler ve cinsiyet rolü erkeksi olanların homofobi ölçeğinden aldıkları puanlar anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Ancak cinsiyet ve cinsiyet rolü ortak etkisinin homofobi üzerinde anlamlı rol oynamadığı tespit edilmiştir.
