The poster presents the first results of a pilot study conducting at University of Seville in 2016. Our work is focused on a new psychosocial model to assess Gender Culture in universities. Based on analysis of Gendered Attitudes (cognitions, emotions and tendencies), analys Professional Identity and Use of Time, in a university professors and researchers sample: 59 subjects -35 women / 24 men- from different areas with low, medium or high presence of women as Architecture, Education, Philology and Psychology.

Too many university posts are given to men without proper competition, says Mathias Wullum Nielsen.

It is well known that women are under-represented in senior science and research positions. This is true even in Denmark, which has long been considered one of the most advanced societies when it comes to gender equality. Although stories of sexism in science often focus on explicit bias, more-subtle factors are widely influential too.
