Abstract

Based on the results of the first national survey on discrimination in Mexico, this study empirically evaluates the influence of individual characteristics on discriminatory attitudes towards women in Mexico. The goal is to evaluate this influence at the individual level and discover if there is a significant difference between regions that leads to the persistence of such discriminatory attitudes. The results reveal that the populations in the northern and central regions of Mexico hold more intense discriminatory attitudes than those in the South.
