We aimed to understand better the social conditions that directly interfere with the population’s displacement patterns and indirectly permeate the strategies and public policies designed to guide the choice of transport modes. Through the analysis of questionnaire responses, the evaluation focused on urban mobility from a gender perspective, specifically on the roles and inherent social relations. Primary data collected were statistically analyzed (descriptive and inferential analysis) to measure the influence of gender on a) use of transport means in daily commuting and b) perceptions about urban mobility conditions. The research occurred in a mid-sized Brazilian city in the interior of the São Paulo State (São Carlos). We found a probable relationship between the gender of the respondents and the use of the leading transport means, given the differences between men and women. However, we do not observe any influence on the perceptions of the urban mobility conditions in the studied municipality. Neste estudo, buscou-se ampliar a compreensão sobre o papel do gênero nas percepções sobre uso dos meios de transporte e sobre as condições de mobilidade urbana. O intuito era compreender, de maneira mais aprofundada, as condicionantes sociais que interferem diretamente nos padrões de deslocamento da população e perpassam indiretamente as estratégias e políticas públicas elaboradas para direcionar a escolha dos modos de transporte. Por meio da análise de respostas a um questionário, focou-se na mobilidade urbana sob uma perspectiva de gênero, especificamente nos papéis e relações sociais inerentes. Foram levantados dados primários e realizadas análises estatísticas (descritivas e inferenciais) para mensuração da influência do gênero sobre a) uso dos meios de transporte para deslocamentos diários, e b) percepções sobre as condições de mobilidade urbana. A pesquisa foi feita em uma cidade média brasileira do interior do Estado de São Paulo (São Carlos). Constatou-se uma provável relação entre o gênero dos respondentes e o uso do meio de transporte principal, visto a existência de diferenças entre homens e mulheres, sem influência constatada, entretanto, nas percepções sobre as condições de mobilidade urbana no município em questão. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/10795 10.34096/rtt.i28.10795 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/10795/11486 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/10795/11536 Revista Transporte y Territorio; No. 28 (2023): Enero-Junio; 142-168 Revista Transporte y Territorio; Núm. 28 (2023): Enero-Junio; 142-168 1852-7175 Urban mobility Gender Perception Public policies Transport means Mobilidade Urbana Gênero Políticas Públicas Percepção Meios de transporte Gender perspectives in the use of transport means and the perception of urban mobility conditions Perspectivas de gênero no uso dos meios de transporte e na percepção sobre as condições de mobilidade urbana info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=transter&d=10795_oai
