(FIDIS Proposal, p. 6) I suggest some key questions: The search for the use of the criterion of sex. 1) Does sex play a role in our own research? 2) In which sense does it play a role? 3) Is the criterion of sex completely absent? 4) Is sex identified in the IMS? How to move on to the screening of gender? 1) How does the criterion of sex play a role in our research? 2) How is the sex variable used? 3) What correlations are made with this variable? 4) Are the connections made by obvious biological differences? 5) Do the connections refer to stereotypes? Realizing that sex and gender are central aspects of identity. Looking at the use of the criterion of sex and taking it into account. Further question: please contact [email protected]
