本研究探讨了职业性别隔离如何影响妇女和男子的看法，提供工作场所的支持。借鉴性别理论和工作场所象征主义的实证研究，作者提出了职业少数群体的概念。虽然象征主义的概念是为了描述工作场所层面的流程而开发的，但作者探讨了在职业层面上成为少数群体如何影响工人。使用全国代表性的数据，她发现，在混合性别的职业，妇女报告的工作场所的支持水平高于男性;在男性主导的职业，他们认为相对较低的支持水平。相比之下，男性在女性占主导地位的职业中感受到的工作场所支持水平相对较高。也就是说，在一个人的职业中，作为少数人的一员，对男子是一种优势，对妇女是一种劣势。
This study examines how occupational sex segregation affects women’s and men’s perceptions of the availability of workplace support. Drawing on theories of gender and empirical studies of workplace tokenism, the author develops the concept of an occupational minority. Although the notion of tokenism was developed to describe processes at the level of the workplace, the author explores how being a minority at the occupational level affects workers. Using nationally representative data, she finds that in mixed-sex occupations, women report higher levels of workplace support than men; in male-dominated occupations, they perceive relatively low levels of support. Men, by contrast, perceive relatively high levels of workplace support in female-dominated occupations. That is, being a member of a numerical minority in one’s occupation is an advantage for men and a disadvantage for women.
