Item Can the legal framework for prostitution influence the acceptability of buying sex?(Journal of Experimental Criminology, 2021) Escot Mangas, Lorenzo; Belope Nguema, Sabina; Fernández Cornejo, José Andrés; Pozo García, Eva María Del; Castellanos Serrano, Cristina; Cruz Calderón, Selene Fabiola; Springer Science and Business Media LLCObjectives This article analyzes the extent to which the legal framework for prostitution can influence the moral judgments individuals make about purchasing sex. We hypothesize that the decriminalization of prostitution (versus the criminalization of purchasing sexual services) increases the acceptability of buying sex. Methods To test this hypothesis, we conduct a factorial survey experiment (FSE) for a Spanish sample. Various descriptions (vignettes) of hypothetical scenarios regarding prostitution in Spain were presented to the respondents to elicit them to form judgements about the acceptability of purchasing sexual services (by a man from a woman) in each of these scenarios. Results From the analysis carried out with multilevel models, robust and causal empirical evidence was obtained in favor of this hypothesis. This result was moderated by some of the contextual variables presented in the vignettes and by some personal characteristics of the respondents. Conclusions Different legal approaches to the sex industry can influence attitudes towards purchasing sexual services.Item Whether your name is Manuel or María matters: gender biases in recommendations to study engineering(Journal of Gender Studies, 2020) Pozo García, Eva María Del; Puente Pacheco, Mario Alberto de la; Fernández Cornejo, José Andrés; Belope Nguema, Sabina; Rodríguez-Juárez, Eduardo; Escot Mangas, Lorenzo; Attwood, FeonaA controlled experiment was conducted to detect gender biases that participants, acting as advisers, may have when providing guidance to teenagers on their career choice. We presented a fictional profile to the study participants – university students from Spain – of a 15-year-old person, called Manuel or María, with two possible levels of academic record. The participants were asked to evaluate the student’s mathematical ability and provide guidance regarding whether or not he or she should study engineering in the future. We assumed that the effect of being a male target on the recommendation to study engineering is partially mediated by the fact that the participants attribute a greater mathematical ability to males. Our results suggest that a significant degree of gender bias in favour of males persists in the recommendation to study engineering. We propose some practical implications for advisers and for equality policies.Item Why Spanish Working Fathers Do not Request the Reconciliation Measures Available in Their Companies?(Social Politics, 2018) Belope Nguema, Sabina; Fernández Cornejo, José Andrés; Escot Mangas, Lorenzo; Pozo García, Eva María delMany working fathers would be potential users of the existing reconciliation measures but they do not request them. One barrier they encounter is the lack of sensitivity on the part of corporate culture to men who want to balance work and family life. We use a sample of Spanish wage-earner fathers and path analysis to analyze— following Sen’s capability approach—how companies that support the use of reconciliation measures by fathers can reduce the gap between theoretical rights to and effective use of reconciliation measures, which leads to a decrease in levels of work–family conflict experienced by these working fathers.Item La reforma del marco legal sobre prostitución. ¿Por qué varones y mujeres no piensan igual?(International review of Economic Policy, 2020) Fernández Cornejo, José Andrés; Escot Mangas, Lorenzo; Belope Nguema, Sabina; Cruz Calderón, Selene FabiolaEn este artículo se aborda la discusión acerca de cómo se debería reformar el marco legal y regulatorio de la prostitución en España. Básicamente se distinguen dos propuestas de política: la propuesta abolicionista, o “modelo sueco”, basada en criminalizar al cliente de los servicios de prostitución, y la descriminalizadora, o “modelo holandés”, basada en regular la prostitución como una actividad económica más. Tras realizar una panorámica sobre esta discusión de política, se abordan tres cuestiones empíricas concretas: la primera consiste en conocer cuál es el grado de apoyo social que tienen cada una de estas dos opciones. La segunda consiste en medir en qué grado difieren los apoyos de mujeres y varones a ambas opciones. Y la tercera trata de explicar por qué existen diferencias de género sistemáticas en esos apoyos. Entre las variables determinantes de esas diferencias de género destacan el hecho de que hay más mujeres que hombres que piensan que la prostitución es una forma de violencia, o que piensan que hay que poner límites al ámbito de influencia del mercado. Para acometer estas cuestiones se realizó una encuesta a una muestra española de 997 personas y se contrastaron las hipótesis formuladas a través de dos modelos lineales generalizados de ecuaciones estructurales (GSEM). De estos resultados se derivaron una serie de recomendaciones de política económica.Item Can the legal framework for prostitution influence the acceptability of buying sex?(2021) Escot Mangas, Lorenzo; Belope Nguema, Sabina; Fernández Cornejo, José Andrés; Pozo García, Eva del; Castellanos Serrano, María Cristina; Cruz Calderón, Selene FabiolaObjectives: This article analyses the extent to which the legal framework for prostitution can influence the moral judgments individuals make about purchasing sex.
