Practical Implications

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.

Research Findings

This study aims to describe male and female stereotypes based on the perceptions of students from ten ethnic groups in Indonesia and agreed upon by all of them and to compare such stereotypes with the research findings by Best and William. The respondents were students from ten ethnic groups, i.e. Jawa, Papua,Sunda, Bali, Madura, Lombok, Batak, Minangkabau, Aceh, dan Betawi. The survey employed a questionnaire with fifty adjectives representing characters referring to the study by Best and William. The data were descriptively analyzed using tabulation and percentage. The findings are as follows. First, students from each ethnic group have a variety of perceptions regarding male and female stereotypes agreed upon. Second, there are a number of male and female stereotypes agreed upon by students from all ethnic groups. Third, the male stereotypes relevant to the study by Best and Williams are strength, dominance, autonomy, and aggression. The female stereotypes relevant to both studies are passiveness, weakness, and abasement.

Control Order

Male and female undergraduates were administered the Gough-Heilbrun Adjective Check List and a questionnaire assessing menstrual regularity. The females' reported regularity was positively correlated with scales for self-control, order, and endurance, demonstrating that women who describe themselves as orderly, methodical, persevering, and dependable are more likely to report a regular menstrual cycle than women reporting an irregular cycle. In contrast, men who projected themselves as women showed a negative relationship between orderly, rigid, and methodical behaviors and regular cycles.

Female Subjects

An iterative factor analysis was performed on the scores obtained from a Motivational Adjective Check List (MACL) for a combined sample of undergraduate male and female students ( N = 202). The initial matrix of significant factors was totated according to the quartimax, varimax, and equamax procedures. The promax rotation was, then, performed on each of the three orthogonal solutions obtaining the promax-quartimax, promax-varimax, and promax-equamax solutions. Interpretation of factors was based on the promax-equa max solution and the factors obtained were: striving and assertion.

Practical Implications

Purpose – The aim of this paper is to explore the nature and power of the academic boys club. In many organisations, the political significance of the boys club goes largely unremarked and unacknowledged. Yet, the way that male colleagues intimately relate to each other, sometimes called homosocial desire, is crucial to their success at gaining and retaining power at work. Design/methodology/approach – Feminist, poststructuralist, ethnographic, qualitative, and longitudinal data were collected over a five-year period from male and female academics in a British university. Findings – The boys club is still a powerful feature of British universities. Their apparent invisibility shrouds the manner in which they can and do promote and maintain male interests in a myriad of ways, including selection and promotion. These findings have resonances for all organisations. Research limitations/implications – Researching the intimacies between male colleagues requires time-intensive field work and insider access to men interacting with each other. Practical implications – Meaningful gender equality will not be achieved unless and until the more sophisticated forms of female exclusion are revealed and deconstructed. Originality/value – This research makes an unusual and crucial contribution to the study of gender, men and masculinities by providing longitudinal, rich, detailed data, observing men at the closest of quarters and then analysed by a feminist and poststructuralist gaze.
