Abstract

The main aim of the study was to identify the image of gender equality in Polish primary school textbooks. A thematic analysis of textbook content with elements of constant comparison method was carried out based on the six domains of the Gender Equality Index: work, money, knowledge, time power, and health. A total of 56 textbooks (32 Polish language textbooks and workbooks and 24 mathematics textbooks and workbooks) for primary school grades seven and eight were analysed. The content of the analysed textbooks seems to reflect the findings of the Gender Equality Index (GEI) regarding the Polish social reality and points to large gender polarisation and gender inequalities, in favour of men. The results are discussed based on theories of cultural understanding of gender and gender roles, as well as similar findings from other educational content studies.

基于欧洲性别平等指数的学校教科书定性内容分析

这项研究的主要目的是确定波兰小学教科书中性别平等的形象。根据性别平等指数的六个领域:工作、金钱、知识、时间权力和健康，采用持续比较的方法对教科书内容进行了专题分析。对小学七年级和八年级的56本教科书(32本波兰语教科书和练习册以及24本数学教科书和练习册)进行了分析。经分析的教科书的内容似乎反映了性别平等指数(GEI)关于波兰社会现实的调查结果，并指出了有利于男性的严重的性别两极分化和性别不平等。研究结果基于性别和性别角色的文化理解理论，以及其他教育内容研究的类似结果进行了讨论。

期刊介绍： The European Educational Research Journal (EERJ) is a scientific journal interested in the changing landscape of education research across Europe. Education research increasingly crosses the borders of the national through its subjects of study, scholarly collaborations and references. The EERJ publishes education research papers and special issues which include a reflection on how the European context and other related global or regional dynamics shape their educational research topics. The European Educational Research Journal publishes double-blind peer-reviewed papers in special issues and as individual articles. The EERJ reviews submitted papers on the basis of the quality of their argument, the contemporary nature of their work, and the level of ''speaking'' to the European audience. Policy-makers, administrators and practitioners with an interest in European issues are now invited to subscribe. The EERJ publishes peer reviewed articles, essay reviews and research reports (forms of research intelligence across Europe)
