Muchinsky, Paul M.; Harris, Sharon L.
Journal of Vocational Behavior, 11, 1, 95-107, Aug 77

Male and female applicants were evaluated for suitability in a managerial role for a predominately female occupation, a predominately male occupation, and a sexually mixed occupation. Attitudes toward women in management were found to be correlated with the suitability ratings. (Author)
