【摘要】：男女生在大学专业选择上存在性别差异。女生选择人文社科专业的比例远高于男生,且选择社科专业的女生比例最高;男生中有超过一半的学生选择工科专业,远高于女生。大学专业选择的性别差异在高中文理分科时就已经体现,八成男生在高中时选择理科,仅有一半的女生选择理科。在控制了可能的生理差异、能力差异、兴趣差异以及家庭因素的影响后,男生更倾向于选择理工科专业,女生更倾向于选择人文社科专业,且在理科和工科专业中,男生更倾向于选择工科,女生更可能选择理科。基于此,应加强面向高中生的大学专业介绍及专业选择指导,逐渐减小性别刻板印象和传统观念对不同性别学生专业选择的影响。
[Abstract]:There are gender differences between male and female students in the choice of university major. The proportion of girls choosing humanities and social sciences is far higher than that of boys, and the proportion of girls who choose social sciences is the highest, and more than half of boys choose engineering majors, which is far higher than that of girls. The gender difference of college major selection has been reflected in the high school arts and science division, 80% of the boys chose science in high school, only half of the girls chose science. After controlling for possible physiological differences, ability differences, interest differences and family factors, boys were more likely to choose science and engineering majors, while girls were more likely to choose humanities and social sciences majors, and in science and engineering majors, Boys are more likely to opt for engineering, while girls are more likely to opt for science. In order to reduce the influence of gender stereotype and traditional ideas on the professional choice of students of different genders, we should strengthen the guidance of college major introduction and major selection for senior high school students.
