Questionaire 'Gender Dimension'

1) Why should we consider the gender dimension in research that has an impact on people? (choose multiple correct answers)
A) Because science has run out of topics to research.
B) Because it helps the digitisation of science.
C) Because it considers the experiences and needs of both women and men.
D) Because it reflects the physical differences between men and women.
E) Because it enhances the quality of the research and the validity of the results.
F) Because it gives work to unqualified women.

2) Pavel, a research assistant, decided to focus his research on the impact of climate
change on agricultural production. He wanted to find out how different factors such as
temperature, rainfall and extreme weather events can affect crops and how this situation
can be addressed in the future. While writing the project proposal, he also started
thinking about the gender dimension within research. How can gender be integrated
into Pavel's research? (choose multiple correct answers)
A) Agricultural research has nothing to do with gender differences.
B) Pavel can focus on how climate change affects men and women working in agricultural production.
C) Pavel can invite his female colleagues Zuzana and Andrea to join his team.
D) Pavel can extend the research sample to include female respondents and investigate the specific impact on this group.
E) In no way, because if the research is done by a man, the gender dimension cannot be included in the research.

3) We can distinguish between sex and gender dimensions in research. The sex dimension refers to anatomical or physiological differences between men and women, whereas the gender dimension in research reflects the different needs, expectations or experiences of men and women. (choose one correct answer)
A) Yes
B) No

3.1. IT research addresses the ideal ergonomic shape of the computer mouse based on the physical differences between women's and men's hands. Is there a sex/gender dimension within research?
A) Yes
B) No

3.2. Dental research addresses the health effects of electric toothbrushes. During the
research, no gender data was collected, but the final product is offered in two colours,
labelled for men and women. Is there a sex/gender dimension within research?
A) Yes
B) No

3.3. The research examines the functionality of air conditioners. The data is collected regardless of whether men or women use the air conditioner. However, the final product allows any temperature to be set according to each person's preferences. Is there a sex/gender dimension within research?
A) Yes
B) No

3.4. Biological research examines differences in the behaviour of female and male fish. Is there a sex/gender dimension within research?
A) Yes
B) No

3.5. Urban research explores urban mobility with consideration of women's and men's travel trajectories. Is there a sex/gender dimension within research?
A) Yes
B) No

3.6. The research addresses the impact of wind farm operations on women's and men's lives. Is there a sex/gender dimension within research?
A) Yes
B) No
