Veni Project
NWO-funded Veni Project "The person I should be: Prescriptive self-stereotyping of women and men"
Progress toward achieving the UN’s sustainable development goal to foster gender equality is slow. Though women are better represented in the workplace than ever before, they remain underrepresented in many prestigious professions and high-level positions; women are also more often employed in people-oriented occupations and men in things-oriented occupations. Stereotypes (generalized assumptions about women and men) are a major reason for gender inequality.
This project develops theory and investigates how women’s and men’s internalization of stereotypes about who they should be (i.e., prescriptive self-stereotyping) can result in gendered career behavior and choices. In other words, the aim of this project is to understand how prescriptive self-stereotyping of women and men leads to gendered career trajectories.
