Thus, 285 individuals studying at Nineteen May University were studied and finally 275 data were obtained (204 women, 71 men). The “Woman Perception Scale”, a validity and reliability study conducted by Gülmez and colleagues (2017), was used to measure the level of women's perception of university students. In order to measure their references to women's murders, the “Attributions Scale For Woman Murders” developed by Üzümçeker and Akfırat (2018) was used for use in this work. Finally, the “Ambivalent Sexism Scale”, developed by Glick and Fiske in 1996 and adapted to Turkish by Sakallı-Uğurlu (2002), was used in this study to measure the ambivalent sexism of university students. Woman's perception of university students of as references, attributions for woman murders with ambivalent sexism of level in Multiple Linear Regression analysis with these variables various arguments for the investigation of the relationship between independent samples t-test and One Way ANOVA analysis methods were used. Based on the results, it was found that ambivalent sexism levels that contradict attributions to woman's murders significantly predicts the perception of women by college students. In addition, it was concluded that the perception of women by age, attributions to woman murders, and levels of ambivalent sexism did not show differentiation in university students. It has been concluded that university students perception of women, attributions to woman murders, and levels of ambivalent sexism differ only in ambivalent sexism according to their gender. It was found that the levels of female perception, attributions to woman murders, and ambivalent sexism did not differ in college students according to their romantic relationship status and there was no change according to the places where they lived.
