Resumen: Se analiza el estado actual de la representación de género en las series de televisión en España de máxima audiencia emitidas por los principales canales generalistas. Para ello, se ha realizado un análisis de contenido de 21 series de televisión producidas en España en el segundo semestre de 2017 y en 2018 analizando 514 personajes (n = 514) con el fin de determinar si existe una representación desigual de los personajes masculinos, femeninos y no binarios. Los principales hallazgos indican lo siguiente: hay una infrarrepresentación de las mujeres; las orientaciones sexuales no heterosexuales están subrepresentadas, al igual que las identidades de género fuera de las tradicionales; se sigue asociando a las mujeres con ocupaciones profesionales menos cualificadas y, en particular, con el trabajo doméstico; existe una relación estadísticamente significativa entre los personajes femeninos y unos objetivos de trabajo menos ambiciosos, más personales, además de estar caracterizadas con personalidades asociadas al mundo de las emociones y la maternidad. Sin embargo, no se encontró ningún vínculo estadístico entre el género y el peso narrativo, el género y la hipersexualización, ni el género y la violencia.
Abstract: This research analyses the current state of gender representation in Spanish prime time television series broadcast by the main generalist channels. For this purpose, an analysis of the content of 21 television series produced in Spain in the second half of 2017 and 2018, of 514 characters (n = 514), has been carried out in order to determine whether there is an unequal representation of male, female and non-binary characters. The main findings indicate that there is an under-representation of women; non-heterosexual sexual orientations are under-represented, as are non-traditional gender identities; women continue to be associated with less qualified professional occupations and, in particular, with domestic work; there is a statistically significant relationship between female characters and less ambitious, more personal work objectives and personalities associated with the world of emotions and motherhood. However, no statistical link was found between gender and narrative weight, gender and hypersexualization, or gender and violence.
