Abstrakt: The study of gender equality attitudes among college students has gained increasing attention in recent years, particularly in the context of the rise of the feminist movement and increased attention to gender issues. In particular, the attitudes of Gen Z college students, who are the future leaders and decision-makers of society, are of great interest in terms of understanding the future direction of gender equality. Understanding and appreciating the importance of gender equality is critical for college students because it is a prerequisite for the development of a society that is both just and equitable. An integrative assessment of the studies on gender equality and the attitudes of college students on gender roles from 2003 to 2022 is presented here. We analyze the nature and content of contemporary research on gender equality among generation Z, and we critically examine the methodological and theoretical approaches that the writers have utilized in their work. We went through 63 publications that were found on Web of Science and read, categorized, and analyzed them. In keeping with previous research, our analysis demonstrates that gender inequalities among college students are still prevalent. Additionally, it appears that the formative years are critical for the development of a perspective concerning gender equality. The three primary areas of study interest include studies on gendered college paths and publication patterns, studies on the influence of new public management on gender, and studies concentrating on how gender plays a role in organizational change. Existing research is lacking in a number of important areas, including (1) a focus on the horizontal dimension (i.e. across disciplines), (2) studies generating concepts and theory, and (3) studies focused on the repercussions of changes in the research policy framework for college education.
