Critical Analysis Over The Perceptions Of Gender Sensitization And Awareness: A Study Of Attitudes And Behaviours In Public Interest

Abstract

This study critically analyzes gender sensitization and awareness perceptions and their effects on public interest attitudes and behaviors. This study enhances our understanding of gender-related sensitization efforts' efficacy by examining how perceptions affect attitudes and behavior. This mixed-methods study covers varied viewpoints across age, gender, socioeconomic background, and education level using quantitative surveys and qualitative in-depth interviews. A structured survey with Likert-scale questions quantifies participants' perceptions, attitudes, and behavioral changes from gender sensitization. Semi-structured interviews are used in the qualitative phase to explore respondents' nuanced personal experiences and beliefs, revealing their qualitative attitudes and behaviors. This study triangulates quantitative and qualitative data through thematic analysis to illuminate the complex relationships between perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors in gender sensitization in the public interest. The expected findings may inform legislative, educational, and societal actions, optimizing gender sensitization strategies and advancing the collective path toward a more inclusive and equitable society.
