How do people view women?

The Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI) is a 22-question measure that captures the complicated nature of perceptions related to women. The questions measure two variables including hostile sexism and benevolent sexism. This survey can be used to explore relationships between different aspects of sexism and variables like where people live, mental health, or empathy. Past research suggests that adolescents who reported less supportive family environments reported more hostile and benevolent sexist attitudes toward women (Dueñas et al., 2020).

What data is collected? How is it scored?
The following variables are recorded:

• ASI_hostile_sexism: Higher scores mean participants are reporting more explicitly negative feelings and attitudes toward women.
• ASI_benevolent_sexismScore: Higher scores mean participants are reporting more idealization of women's traditional gender roles and a patronizing view of women's need to be protected.

Raw data: 22 questions broken into 2 variables (hostile sexism and benevolent sexism). Each variable's score ranges from 0-5.

Calculation:
Subscores are determined by averaging the scores of the questions in each variable. The Likert scale ranges from 0 ("disagree strongly") to 5 ("agree strongly"), so the averages of the scores will also range from 0-5. If an item is reverse-scored (denoted with an R after the question number), the score is subtracted from 5. Specifically, if a question is reverse-scored, and the participant responds "disagree strongly", then this question will be scored as a 5 rather than 0.
