Does masculinity affect a country's transport emissions? : - A case study on the relationship between masculinity and transport emissions (English)
Abstract [en]

The purpose of the study is to compare whether there is any connection between a country's masculinity and the country's transport emissions per capita. Furthermore, theories about Hofstede's masculinity index have been discussed as well as what attributes that characterize a country. Masculine countries tend to prioritize career and material rewards while feminine countries appreciate leisure and social contexts. Does a country's masculinity level affect attitudes to climate and emissions?

This essay is written with a quantitative method and a deductive approach with elements of a qualitative method. The theoretical frame of reference has been used as the basis and together with the secondary data collected, a correlation analysis has been made to test the relationship between masculinity and transport emissions per capita. According to our analysis, it has been found that between the countries that the study has analyzed, there is a significant correlation between a country's masculinity level and transport emissions per capita. Since the study has shown that countries with a low masculinity index tend to have less transport emissions per capita, facts about the countries and a netnography have been used to explain the correlation that has arisen.
