Abstract

A description of those characteristics comprising the male and female stereotypes, using the Adjective Check List (ACL), was obtained from a group of young Indian adults. A different group independently evaluated the traits (adjectives) of the ACL. The results revealed a description of the male and female stereotypes; a substantial lack of agreement between the sexes with respect to the features characteristics of each sex; and a differential evaluation by the sexes of the male and female stereotypes. These results were discussed in terms of their experimental and practical implications.
