来自44个社会的数据被用来探讨性别隔离的研究领域。与将社会经济现代化与公共领域机构的“去性别化”联系起来的说法相反，课程领域的性别类型在经济更发达的环境中更强。作者认为，两种文化力量联合收割机在先进的工业社会创造了一种新的性别隔离制度。第一种是性别本质主义意识形态，即使在最自由平等主义的背景下，它也被证明是非常有弹性的;第二种是自我表达的价值体系，它为“性别自我”的表达创造了机会和激励。多变量分析表明，后工业劳动力市场和现代教育体系的结构特征支持培养，实现和显示性别特定的课程亲和力。
Data from 44 societies are used to explore sex segregation by field of study. Contrary to accounts linking socioeconomic modernization to a “degendering” of public‐sphere institutions, sex typing of curricular fields is stronger in more economically developed contexts. The authors argue that two cultural forces combine in advanced industrial societies to create a new sort of sex segregation regime. The first is gender‐essentialist ideology, which has proven to be extremely resilient even in the most liberal‐egalitarian of contexts; the second is self‐expressive value systems, which create opportunities and incentives for the expression of “gendered selves.” Multivariate analyses suggest that structural features of postindustrial labor markets and modern educational systems support the cultivation, realization, and display of gender‐specific curricular affinities.
