The first section on \"Confronting Sexism\" presents articles that identify key aspects of situations and of individuals that are associated with confronting, and highlight variables that moderate the target's and ally's confronting behavior. The second section on \"Interventions for Reducing Sexism\" presents articles that examine optimal ways to reduce sexism, identify factors that affect the efficacy of interventions, and highlight structural and cultural influences that bolster sexism and prevent the acceptance of interventions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJulia Becker\u003c\/strong\u003e is a professor of social psychology at the University of Osnabrueck (Germany).
