Resum

¿Existen diferencias de conocimiento acerca del cambio climático entre adolescentes mujeres y hombres? ¿Cómo perciben los adolescentes la crisis climática en función del género? Con el fin de dar respuesta a estas preguntas se realizó un metaanálisis con una muestra de 84 artículos internacionales seleccionados con la metodología de revisión bibliográfica sistematizada, para lo cual se identificaron aquellos en los que —de acuerdo con la variable de género— existían diferencias de conocimiento, percepciones y/o valoraciones entre los adolescentes que cursaban educación secundaria. Del total de artículos —que se concentró entre 1993 y 2017— 26 de ellos (30,95%) abordaban las diferencias de género en relación con el cambio climático. El metaanálisis reveló que las mujeres obtenían menores puntuaciones que los hombres respecto de los conocimientos en esta temática, con una diferencia aumentada conforme se avanzaba en los respectivos cursos de educación secundaria, aunque atribuían un mayor riesgo a la crisis climática, presentaban mayor preocupación por el problema y, a diferencia de los hombres que evidenciaban una cosmovisión más tecnicista, estas mostraron mayor disposición ecocéntrica para aceptar las medidas contra la crisis climática.
