Self-Esteem and Men's Negative Stereotypes of Women Who Work

The relationships between self-esteem and attitudes toward women who work were explored using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth for 4,386 young adult males Significant, negative associations were found among the measures, which suggests that men with low scores on self-esteem tend to oppose the employment of women, while men with high self-esteem scores are likely to approve of women working. These findings support previous research on the relationship between self-esteem and prejudice as well as indicate possible sources of unequal treatment of men and women in the workplace
