Abstract
Comparing ratings of “typical” personality and self on 20 sex-related personality traits by 1115 male and 1510 female college students across the years 1974-77-80-83 shows that strength of rating on all traits increased but especially so on sex-typed ratings. This pattern of increased stereotyping holds even when demographic factors are controlled.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
