• Why Are Some STEM Fields More Gender Balanced Than Others? (2017, unknown): “Seeing other girls and women in their courses helps defend against stereotype threat (Murphy et al., 2007; Stout et al., 2011) and may weaken associations between STEM and males (D. I. Miller, Eagly, & Linn, 2015).”
• The Consequences of the National Math and Science Performance Environment for Gender Differences in STEM Aspiration (2016, background): “2010), the average gender-math stereotype measured through implicit association tests (Miller et al. 2014; Nosek et al. 2009), and the proportion of women in science fields of study and occupations.”
• Patterns of Implicit and Explicit Stereotypes III: Long-Term Change in Gender Stereotypes (2021, unknown): “Such predictions are supported by experimental evidence of explicitly expressed stereotypes (e.g., Koenig & Eagly, 2014, 2019) as well as correlational evidence from single points in time (e.g., Miller et al., 2015).”
• Gendered Parenting in Early Childhood: Subtle But Unmistakable if You Know Where to Look (2018, background): “Alternatively, parents may not have gendered parenting goals but be victims of unconscious gender stereotypes pervasive in many societies (34).”
• Gender Gap in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM): Current Knowledge, Implications for Practice, Policy, and Future Directions (2016, unknown): “Specifically, nations with higher proportions of women enrolled in postsecondary science courses and employed in science careers are less likely to explicitly endorse the stereotype that science is a masculine profession (Miller et al. 2015).”
• Adults and children implicitly associate brilliance with men more than women (2020, background): “This mechanism may also explain the consistent levels of the implicit gender-brilliance stereotype across regions of the world (Study 5): While there is, of course, some cross-country variability in the gender composition of various careers, many brilliance-oriented fields remain male-dominated glob”
