While many women receive equal education, such equality is nowhere
in sight when it comes to women's and men's career success: men
still earn significantly more than women and are more likely to be
promoted. In this book, the authors offer a state of the art review
of applied social-psychological research on gender at work,
shedding light on all the different ways that work-related
perceptions, attributions, outcomes, and the like differ for women
and men. Focusing on domains (e.g., engineering) and positions
(e.g., leadership) that are marked by women's underrepresentation,
the first part of the book looks at gender at work in terms of
stereotypes, attitudes, and social roles, including parenthood,
while the second part takes a social identity and communication
perspective, exploring the situations in which men and women
interact at work. Many chapters focus on applied questions, such as
career choice, effects of role models, and sexual harassment at
work. Theories and findings are applied to these topics, with
conclusions and recommendations drawn throughout the book.
