Methodologically, the instrument called the Reading and Writing Skills Test (PHL) was applied to 100 men and 161 women, registered in 30 different courses.

It was also determined that there is no relationship between the variables of gender or career and the results obtained in the PHL. That is, the average mastery of the categories does not vary nor does it show statistically significant differences between the group of men and women, or by career |
