Actitudes conservadoras: obstáculo en la participación laboral de las mujeres casadas en Ecuador
No full textThis research examines the possibility that machismo is part of the determinants of female labor participation (TFP) in Ecuador. It seeks to verify the hypothesis that as a woman presents more conservative attitudes (regarding gender roles), the probability of entering the labor market decreases. The approach present in this research identifies how machismo conditions women, preventing them from entering the labor market in the Ecuadorian economy. A multinomial logistic model is used to calculate the probability that a married woman is out of the PEA (economically active population), is a salaried employee or falls into self-employment. The results confirm the hypothesis, there are also indications of the relationship between education and ethnicity of women and their entry into the labor market.La presente investigación examina la posibilidad de que el machismo forme parte de los determinantes de la participación laboral femenina (PTF) en Ecuador.

El enfoque presente en esta investigación identifica cómo el machismo condiciona a la mujer impidiendo su entrada al mercado laboral en la economía ecuatoriana. Se utiliza un modelo logístico multinomial para calcular la probabilidad de que una mujer casada esté fuera de la PEA (población económicamente activa), sea empleada Asalariada o caiga en el Autoempleo.
