Article Citation - Scopus: 1Why Is the Lack of Support for Women's Rights Appealing? Considering the Roles of Dispositional System-Justifying Motives and Ambivalent Sexism(American Psychological Association, 2024-11) Özdemir, Fatih; Tayyar, Merve; Topuz, ÖmerAlthough the women's rights movement has made various gains in recent years, there are many negative attitudes toward women and their rights in Turkey. This study aimed to examine the relationship between dispositional system-justifying motives and tendency to support women's rights and to test the mediating role of sexist attitudes in this relationship. A total of 530 Turkish adults participated in the online study, with a mean age of 26.20 years (SD = 5.56). The results show that people with high system justification motivation (including dispositional system-justifying motives, high death anxiety, low need for cognition, and high need for recognition) indicated stronger ambivalent sexism toward women (including hostile and benevolent sexist attitudes). In turn, people with ambivalent sexist attitudes had less willingness to support women's rights (considering attitudes toward women's disadvantaged position in society and awareness and support for the Istanbul Convention). © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 12Glass Ceiling in Academia Revisited: Evidence From the Higher Education System of Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Bulbul, SerapCurrent study investigates the gender gap in academic promotions in Turkey taking a new perspective on the widely established existence of gender inequality in academia. The dataset includes the eight most-prominent research universities in Turkey and the nature of the 'glass ceiling' is explored by looking at the gendered distributions of: (1) academic seats -indicating academic performances, and (2) coauthorship patterns concerning genders. Findings suggest that there is gender disparity in academic performances as well as in academic promotions. In addition, gender is found to be a significant factor in explaining the current situation in academic ranks and subtle discrimination practices may exist instead of overt discrimination practices as it is also suggested in previous studies. In sum, results show two main points: (1) There is evidence of gender gap in academic promotions in Turkey, (2) A new variable -cross gender coauthorship- for glass ceiling research may provide further insight about the issue.
