Higher female employment in the researcher workforce related to weaker explicit and implicit, gender-science stereotypes t or f
weaker explicit but not implicit
the relationship between women’s educational enrollment in science and implicit gender-science stereotypes differed based on edu how
was stronger for college-educated participants than participants without college education
what theory provides a framework for understanding how gender stereotypes form and change
social role theory
why do stereotypes about other social groups vary across nations
because repeatedly observing members of Dif social groups in role linked activities decreases adherence
why experimental studies have revealed that exposure to successful women engineers and mathematicians have not consistently weak- ened gender-STEM stereotypes

To test these predictions, our study analyzed two aspects of women’s particiption in science: percentage of women among what 2 things
(a) all science majors (community college or above) and (b) employed researchers.
why do implicit and explicit measures differ
implicit reflect activation of memory
explicit the outcomes of propositional processes
what kind of info can change explicit stereotypes
brief exposure to propositional information (e.g., statistics about wom- en’s representation in science) could change explicit stereotypes.
what kind of info can change explicit stereotypes
brief exposure to propositional information (e.g., statistics about wom- en’s representation in science) could change explicit stereotypes.
stereotypes were large even in nations such as Argen- tina and Bulgaria why is this surprising
women were approximately half of the nation’s science majors and employed researchers.
how strong was the correlation of implicit to explicit stereotypes amount individuals within a nation
explicit and implicit mea- sures correlated weakly among individuals within nations
