Looking through Gendered Lenses: Female Stereotyping in Advertisements and Gender Role Expectations.
Lafky, Sue; And Others
Journalism and Mass Communication Quarterly, v73 n2 p379-88 Sum 1996
Applies cognitive heuristics theory to the study of gender role stereotyping--75 high schoolers viewed magazine advertisements with stereotypical female images, while 50 others viewed nonstereotypical images; groups then responded to statements about women in a "neutral" photograph. Finds differences in gender role expectations for 6 of 12 questionnaire statements, suggesting that even brief exposure to stereotypical ads reinforce stereotypes. (PA)
