Images of males and females in primary and middle school textbooks in Iraq: A content analysis study
|
|
|
|
Abstract:
This study examined Arabic reading and civics education textbooks used in Iraq to determine whether their content was consistent with the policy of sex equity of the Ministry of Education. Specifically, the study sought to establish whether there was fair representation of both genders in Iraqi textbooks. ; Analysis of the narrative content was based on the following variables: sex, age, setting, family role, occupations, traits, activities, character role, vocabulary (nouns and pronouns) and number of male and female characters featured in titles. The pictorial content analysis examined gender, age, setting, and activities. The character was used as the unit of analysis. ; The results of the narrative and pictorial analysis showed that male characters outnumber female characters with respect to all variables. These differences were statistically significant. Both genders were portrayed in traditionally masculine and traditionally feminine activities. Intercoder reliability in the application of the content analysis instrument to the material for these results ranged from 0.92 to 1.0. ; The representation of female characters in textbooks does not accurately represent the important role Iraqi women play in building and serving the society of Iraq today. ; The findings of this study also confirmed those of previous research on the representation of male and female characters in school textbooks in other Arab and non-Arab countries. ; Recommendations for further research and policy issues were developed. More research needs to be done to discover ways to promote sex equity in the following areas: (a) coeducational and single-sex schools, (b) testing, (c) classroom organization and climate, and (d) the area of the hidden curriculum. ; Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 51-12, Section: A, page: 4008. ; Major Professor: Byron G.
