Sažetak

Aim. The main purpose of the research is an attempt to find an empirical answer to the question: do former students of both genders perceive differently the characteristics of male and female university professors? The problems of the research were to establish: how do male and female examinees judge the different characteristics of professors of both genders (1); whether the examinees of different genders judge the characteristics of male and female professors differently (2); if the examinees of different genders evaluate the attributes of male and female professors related to communication skills and abilities, in other words, with the scientific aspect of work (3); do examinees from different faculties evaluate the characteristics of male and female professors (4).
Methods. The interviewees in the research were all people with university education (44 female examinees, 33 male examinees, 77 in total, graduates of different faculties in Croatia). The differences between them were age, gender and the type of academic studies (socially-humanistic/non-socially-humanistic), and level of education. The examinees were evaluating the characteristics of male and female university professors based on characteristics lists from the book of the Slovenian psychologist Vid Pečjak.
Results and conclusions. Both male and female examinees are more inclined to perceive the features of female professors as more prominent (desirable) (1); neither male nor female examinees tend to judge professors of different genders dissimilarly (2); examinees of different genders evaluate the attributes of male and female professors tied to communication skills and abilities in the same manner (3), and in a different manner the characteristics of male and female professors connected to the scientific aspect of work (4); former students of socially-humanistic faculties when compared to former students of other faculties equally evaluate the characteristics of the male, but not those of the female professors, whilst former students of psychology in comparison to former students of other faculties equally judge the attributes of both male and female professors.
