Research has indicated that students still seem to rate occupations according to sex role stereotypes. To determine the influence of subject variables on occupational ratings, 105 students and 76 nonstudents rated 35 occupations on various dimensions including masculinity/femininty, and status. Analysis of results indicated substantial sex role stereotyping of occupations along the masculinity/femininity dimension. More than half the occupations were significantly stereotyped by some group. Older nonstudents and older male students (those over age 35) stereotyped occupations the most, while younger nonstudents and older female students stereotyped the least. In general, males tended to stereotype more often than females. There were fewer significant findings for the status dimension, with fewer occupations yielding significant differences. Demographic variables did not have as much impact on status as they did for masculinity/femininity. (JAC)
