Attitudes regarding non-equitable gender standards: psychometric properties of the short version of a gender equitable men subscale. Aval. psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.3, pp. 311-318.

The study aimed to validate the short version of a subscale of the Gender Equitable Men (GEM) Scale with healthcare university students. The original scale has 24 items and assesses equitable and inequitable gender norm attitudes in intimate relationships. With a sample of 2,249 students in the health area of a university in the central west of Brazil, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed using polychoric correlations with direct Varimax rotation and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using the Structural equation modeling technique. Another 347 students participated in the test-retest stability assessment. The single-factor solution with eight items was satisfactory in the EFA (χ²₂₀=47.733; p<.005; CFI = .988; RMSEA=.025[.016-.034]; SRMR=.045), and in the CFA (RMSEA=.025; CFI = .988; SRMR=.033), obtaining a general Cronbach's α of .99. The final model presented a good fit and there were signs of moderate stability. The GEM short-version subscale presented evidence of validity and reliability, which allows the assessment of gender norms in university educated adults with a reduced number of items.
