这项研究探讨了性别刻板印象在通过维持性别之间的劳动分工来证明社会制度合理性方面的作用。 80个职业的性别分布；根据参与者的信念预测，性别刻板属性的六个维度有助于职业成功：男性身体、女性身体、男性人格、女性人格、男性认知和女性认知。研究结果表明，就女性主导的职业而言，女性的个性或身体特征被认为对成功更为重要；如果职业以男性为主，男性的个性或身体特征被认为更为重要。展示了性别刻板印象在证明性别等级合理性方面的作用，职业具有更高的声望，因为参与者认为它们需要男性人格或认知属性才能成功，并且他们的收入更高，因为他们被认为需要男性人格属性。
This study examines the role of gender stereotypes in justifying the social system by maintaining the division of labor between the sexes. The distribution of the sexes in 80 occupation; was predicted from participants' beliefs that six dimensions of gender-stereotypic attributes contribute to occupational success: masculine physical, feminine physical, masculine personality,feminine personality, masculine cognitive, and feminine cognitive. Findings showed that, to the extent that occupations were female dominated, feminine personality or physical attributes were thought more essential for success; to the extent that occupations were male dominated, masculine personality or physical attributes were thought more essential. Demonstrating the role of gender stereotypes in justifying gender hierarchy, occupations had higher prestige in that participants believed that they required masculine personality or cognitive attributes for success, and they had higher earnings to the extent that they were thought to require masculine personality attributes.
