Gendered personality disposition and gender role attitudes among Israeli students

In a sample of 204 Israeli university students, the author examined the rel ationship between gendered personality dispositions and 2 aspects of gender role attitudes: occupational sex typing and gender role stereotypes. Evalu ations of occupational gender attributes were the least sex typed among par ticipants in the androgynous group. At the same time, contrary to expectati ons, the participants in the undifferentiated and sex-typed groups had rela tively stereotyped perceptions of occupations. However, no relationship was found between gendered personality disposition and stereotyped perceptions of gender roles. Regardless of gendered personality disposition, the women , compared with the men, had more liberal attitudes toward gender roles.
