Each factor represents a specific form of microaggression, using thematic classifications instead of the typical categories of microassaults, microinsults, or microinvalidations.

The scale consists of 22 items rated on a 6-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 6 = strongly agree) and includes two subscales: hostile sexism and benevolent sexism. Hostile sexism reflects negative attitudes and discriminatory behaviors toward women, emphasizing their inferiority and weakness. Benevolent sexism involves seemingly positive but patronizing attitudes based on patriarchal values, such as the belief that women should be protected and cherished. Although conceptually distinct, both dimensions contribute to the persistence of gender inequality. Higher scores indicate higher levels of hostile or benevolent sexism.'}, {'measure': 'Psychological Distress Level', 'timeFrame': 'From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks', 'description': 'The Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS) were developed by Lovibond and Lovibond (1995) to assess three components of negative emotional states: depression, anxiety, and stress.

(1998) and has been shown to be a valid and reliable tool. The Turkish adaptation of DASS-21 was conducted by Sarıçam (2018). The scale does not produce a total score; instead, each subscale is scored separately, with scores ranging from 0 to 21.

The program's impact on gender role attitudes and psychological distress was also examined.\n\nMethods: The research employed a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test measurements. Gender-based microaggressions are defined as subtle but harmful actions or expressions targeting individuals' identities, often perpetrated unconsciously. In particular, gender-based microaggressions perpetuate traditional gender roles, undermine women's autonomy, and negatively affect psychological well-being, constituting invisible barriers in social and professional life.\n\nThe psychoeducation program consisted of six modules aiming to increase awareness of microaggressions, develop coping and assertiveness skills, enhance critical thinking regarding gender roles, and reduce gender role stress. The program included theoretical knowledge, experiential learning, assertiveness training, and stress management strategies. A total of 80 students participated, with 31 assigned to the experimental group and 49 to the control group.\n\nInstruments: Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Ambivalent Sexism Inventory, Female Microaggressions Scale, Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale (DASS-21), and semi-structured interviews prepared by the researcher."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'genderBased': True, 'genderDescription': 'Being female', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Being a woman,\n* Knowing Turkish,\n* Not having any communication problems (language, hearing, etc.).\n* Being 18 years of age or older,\n* Being willing to participate in the research.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Having a mental or physical problem that prevents communication,\n* Being male'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT07120360', 'briefTitle': 'Gender Microagression Psychoeducation', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Yuzuncu Yil University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effect of Gender-Based Microaggression Awareness and Prevention Psychoeducation Program on Gender Role Attitudes and Gender Role Stress of Female University Students', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2023/06-13'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Psychoeducation Group', 'description': 'Participants in this arm received a six-session psychoeducation program designed to increase awareness of gender-based microaggressions, develop coping and assertiveness skills, foster critical thinking regarding gender roles, and reduce gender role stress.
