OBJECTIVE: To validate the questionnaire 'Gender Perspective in Health Research' (GPIHR) to assess the inclusion of gender perspective in research projects. DESIGN: Validation study in two stages. Feasibility was analysed in the first, and reliability, internal consistence and validity in the second. Where: Aragón Institute of Health Science, Aragón, Spain. PARTICIPANTS: GPIHR was applied to 118 research projects funded in national and international competitive tenders from 2003 to 2012. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Analysis of inter- and intra-observer reliability with Kappa index and internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha. Content validity analysed through literature review and construct validity with an exploratory factor analysis. RESULTS: Validated GPIHR has 10 questions: 3 in the introduction, 1 for objectives, 3 for methodology and 3 for research purpose. Average time of application was 13 min Inter-observer reliability (Kappa) varied between 0.35 and 0.94 and intra-observer between 0.40 and 0.94. Theoretical construct is supported in the literature. Factor analysis identifies three levels of GP inclusion: 'difference by sex', 'gender sensitive' and 'feminist research' with an internal consistency of 0.64, 0.87 and 0.81, respectively, which explain 74.78% of variance. CONCLUSIONS: GPIHR questionnaire is a valid tool to assess GP and useful for those researchers who would like to include GP in their projects
OBJETIVO: Validar el cuestionario 'Perspectiva de género en la investigación en salud' (PEGEIN), para evaluar la inclusión de la perspectiva de género en los proyectos de investigación. DISEÑO: Estudio de validación en dos fases. En la primera se analizó la viabilidad, y en la segunda, la fiabilidad, la consistencia interna y la validez. Emplazamiento: Instituto Aragonés de Ciencias de la Salud, Aragón, España. PARTICIPANTES: Se aplicó el cuestionario PEGEIN a 118 proyectos de investigación financiados en convocatorias nacionales e internacionales competitivas en el periodo 2003-2012. MEDICIONES PRINCIPALES: Análisis de la fiabilidad inter e intra-observador con el índice de Kappa y consistencia interna con el coeficiente alfa de Cronbach. Se analizó la validez de contenido a través de revisión bibliográfica y la de constructo con un análisis factorial exploratorio. RESULTADOS: El PEGEIN validado consta de un total de diez cuestiones: tres para introducción, una para objetivos, tres para metodología y tres para finalidad de la investigación. El tiempo medio de aplicación fue 13 minutos. La fiabilidad (kappa) interobservador osciló entre 0.35 y 0.94 y la intra-observadora entre 0.40 y 0.94. El constructo teórico está sustentado en la bibliografía. El análisis factorial identifica tres niveles de incorporación de la PG 'diferencia por sexo', 'sensible al género' e 'investigación feminista' con una consistencia interna de 0.64, 0.87 y 0.81 respectivamente, que explican un 74.78% de la varianza. CONCLUSIONES: El cuestionario PEGEIN es un instrumento válido para evaluar la PG y útil para aquellas investigadoras e investigadores que quieran incluir la PG en sus proyectos

Objetivo: La perspectiva de género es un enfoque teórico procedente de las teorías feministas, cuyo eje principal es el análisis de las desigualdades de género, y su incorporación es crucial para promover la equidad en salud. El objetivo de nuestra investigación fue elaborar un protocolo/cuestionario para evaluar si la perspectiva de género está presente en un proyecto de investigación, y con ello paliar la carencia de instrumentos de evaluación. Método: Se aplicó un diseño cualitativo con dos técnicas: grupo de discusión y encuentro grupal de expertas. El grupo de discusión realizó un análisis dialéctico de los conceptos base sobre investigación y género, e integró los resultados del discurso producido en el encuentro grupal de expertas. La elaboración del protocolo se organizó en torno a las preguntas relevantes a formularse en cada una de las etapas deun proyecto de investigación. Resultados: El protocolo elaborado consta de 15 cuestiones: 4 en la introducción, 2 en objetivos e hipótesis, 3 en metodología, 3 en finalidad del estudio y 3 para ser aplicadas a lo largo del proyecto deinvestigación. Conclusiones: Este protocolo es una herramienta que posibilita identificar aquellos proyectos que incluyan la perspectiva de género, y su utilización dará una mayor calidad a la investigación y ayudará a reducirlas inequidades por cuestiones de género (AU)
Objective: Gender perspective is a theoretical approach that developed from feminist theories and whose main focus is the analysis of gender inequalities. Integration of this perspective is central to promotingequity in health. The aim of our study was to devise a protocol/questionnaire to assess whether genderis present in research projects and thus help to fill the gap in assessment tools.Methods: We used a qualitative design with two techniques: group discussion and expert group meetings.The discussion group conducted a dialectical analysis of the basic concepts in research and genderand integrated the results of the discourse produced in the expert group meeting. The drafting of theprotocol was organized around the pertinent questions that should be asked at each stage of a researchproject.Results: The protocol consists of 15 questions: four in the introduction section, two in goals and hypotheses,three in methodology, three in purpose of the study and three to be implemented throughout theresearch project. Conclusions: The protocol identifies projects that include a gender perspective. Use of this protocol will improve the quality of research and will help to reduce gender inequities (AU)
