The status of gender equity at universities is often evaluated via statistical data such as the proportions of women faculty members and students. However, given that women are still a minority in decision-making positions while gender parity has been achieved in most countries for students, simply increasing the proportion of women alone is not enough to ensure a truly gender-neutral (gender bias-free) academic climate on campuses, i.e., continuous efforts are required to create an environment that promotes the active participation of women.

In the context of increasing sex differences in psychiatric disorders over time, it is urgent to reduce the sex differences in psychiatric disorders. The findings that sex differences in psychiatric disorders exist almost across the whole life emphasized the adoption of gendered mental health prevention strategies and consistent risk factor management over the lifecourse. The variation of such differences across age and socioeconomic status suggests that the current knowledge - females predominate in internalizing disorders and males predominate in externalizing disorders - can be improved by incorporating information on age and socioeconomic status.
