In the article the authors consider the problem of gender stereotypes and theoretically substantiate the emergence of the
phenomenon of gender differences in society. In particular examines the concept of "gender", "gender identity", "the sex-role
identity", "gender stereotypes", "gender-scheme" "auto-stereotypes", "hetero-stereotypes", "gender-role socialization",
"gender segregation" and others from the point of view of foreign researchers of gender. Also discusses the characteristics of
male and female sex-role identity associated with the occurrence of stereotypically. Red thread on article is the idea that
gender schema as cognitive categories of gender begin to manage the processes of processing of the information we receive
such a way that we begin to perceive, memorize and to interpret it in accordance with our ideas about the genders.
The key concepts: gender, gender identity, sex-role identity, gender stereotypes, gender scheme, gender-role
socialization, gender segregation.
Questions related to special features of gender and psychological differences, in recent years are among the
most actively discussed in society. Although the term "gender" (social gender, as a product of culture) appeared in
1975 (which is relatively recently), in science and the previously existed research and ideas of sexual dimorphism.
"Gender" in psychology refers to socio-biological characteristic by which people define the concepts of "man"
and "woman".
Psychologists prefer to use the term "gender", thereby emphasizing that many of the differences between men
and women are created by culture, whereas the word "sex" implies that all differences are a direct consequence of
biological sex. For the average person gender is an important social category, through which he processes
information about people around him.
To deny the existence of the phenomenon of gender differences is illogical, and numerous studies conducted
on this issue, it should be considered justified and necessary, but nevertheless these differences cannot be
overstated.
Today in the media and on television often use the theme that men and women are creatures from different
planets, speaking different languages. The authors of such programs deliberately prefer not to notice the huge
amount of proven scientific research of the facts, telling us that men and women have more similarities than
differences. Apparently, society, and the media are interested in how to perpetuate a myth about existence in the
world of creatures, different in appearance and having substantial differences. I.e. we see men and women a lot
more differences than they actually have, and it's not in the differences themselves, and the particularities of social
cognition gender.
It is known that inherent in us from birth strategies of information processing, and especially our tendency to
categorize, influence our perception of others. In order to bring our diverse external world to cognitive perceivable

form, we will distribute incoming information for certain categories. Thus, it is formed a specific cognitive
structures called schemas. These schemas influence the perception, storage and playback of incoming external
information. In short, these schemas direct the processing of information. Usually we have the ready cognitive
categories for most social situations (event-driven schemes), for people who are familiar to us (personal scheme),
and for social groups identified on the basis of gender, ethnicity and occupation (role schema) [1].
This category direct the processing of incoming information about people and situations. Most people believe
that perception is direct copy of objective data. However, the concept of schema is based on the fact that
systematic prior knowledge (schema) affect the active construction of social reality. While objective data form
what you perceive, your beliefs and expectations shape the way you see this information. But nowadays most
people even with niesiolowski education know that the accumulated General knowledge about categories of
people do not allow fair to judge about the unique qualities of the individual.
In 1954, psychologist Gordon Allport [2] noticed that, when faced with information overload, people allocate
people into categories as objects and situations, is stereotypization. Currently stereotypes are seen by many social
psychologists as cognitive categories (schemas) social groups. Stereotypes is a widespread view that members of
identifiable groups are similar to each other, working as a schema in the perception of these groups. Common
stereotypes of men are active, aggressive and effective, and women as passive, dependent and emotional (Bergen
and D. J. Williams [3]). They are the results of studies that demonstrate that the most stereotypical gender
differences are too small to expect their regular manifestations [4]. The researchers agree that gender stereotypes
arise on the basis of gender roles. Established patterns serve as norms for women and men and are models for
gender-role socialization [4,5]. I.e. according to these studies, the distribution of genders in different social roles
leads to some social norms, in which women and men behave in a certain way: it is expected that women are
more sensitive, expressive and emotional than men, and men masculine, independent, assertive.
In a short study we will also try to dispel some of the stereotypes about the essential differences of men and
women.
Gender identity, sex-role identification, and other mechanisms that affect the psyche of people of
different sex
The identification with certain floors, the development of appropriate forms of behavior and formation of
personal characteristics is the formation of gender identity [6]. Features male and female sex-role identification
specifically affect the individual's position in society, his personal and professional life.
This is because different social roles of men and women suggest they have a different psychological qualities
and capabilities. Moreover, in our society too often says about the fundamental differences between women and
men. And most importantly, inherent in us from birth strategies of information processing can also contribute to
the exaggeration of the scale of the differences between the genders.
Gender stereotypes appear here as a gender schema. Gender schema: cognitive categories of gender begin to
manage the processing of incoming information in such a way that we begin to perceive, remember and interpret
it in accordance with our perceptions of genders.
Consider how gender schemas and how they can influence on gender identification. So, the breakdown of the
constituent elements of the surrounding world into categories begins in childhood and is the essence of the process
of cognitive development. To facilitate the assimilation of a vast amount of information, children resort to
categorization.
Gender acts as an important criterion for categorization is partly because in our society we are constantly told
about the importance of gender differences. TV, literature and folklore often depict men and women are creatures,
absolutely different from each other. Parents, teachers and peers are also often pushed the children to pay
particular attention to gender, and as a consequence of those thoughts that men and women differ not only in the
genitals. Children notice that men and women strive to look different and do different things. This belief is formed
from the observation of such members of society, such as their parents.
Over time, children begin to classify people, their behavior and characteristics from the point of view of their
belonging to "male" or "female" categories. In the mind of the child arise "gender schema of their own group" and
"gender schema of another group". When an object (or its behavior) is classified as belonging to the opposite sex,
it is usually not attract much attention of the child. In this regard, children are more likely to show interest and
desire to model actions typical for their own gender. Thus the gender schema is fixed in the mind of the child.
This scheme consists of scenarios and action plans necessary to implement behaviours associated with gender. As
soon as children are able to identify their gender, they have the motivation to be similar to other members of their
group, they begin to more carefully observe accepted in their group behaviour.

When an object (or its behavior) is classified as belonging to the opposite sex, it is usually not attract much
attention of the child. Even the child who starts correctly identify your gender, you may receive the disposition on
the basis of his knowledge of a very limited number of people (with certain features), to ascribe these
characteristics to all the men and women. In this case, it may come to the erroneous perception of a strong link
between gender and behavior, characteristics or skills, so there are primary gender stereotypes.
In a further choice of children of this or that type of behaviour or formation of their own preferences largely
corresponds to their awareness of gender stereotypes.
In this connection the tendency of boys to play with boys and girls with girls begins to emerge in children at
approximately three years of age and gradually increases until the entry into puberty. This process is called gender
segregation, and he is fully dependent on gender stereotypes. Gender segregation is also stimulated by differences
in socialization processes: this leads to the fact that boys and girls prefer different games, different toys and be
interested in different things.
The concept of Sandra BEM, also called the gender schema S. BEM, reflects the existence of three types of
people with different gender identity:
1)with a predominance of feminine characteristics,
2)with a predominance of masculine characteristics
3)with a predominance of "androgynous" traits (those who observed the balance of masculine and feminine
characteristics, i.e. moderate, average - this was understood to androgyny) [7].
Until the 70s of the twentieth century manifestation of the "masculine" traits in women and "feminine" traits in
men were for psychologists a source of concern. And among the people, far from psychology, this understanding
is widespread now and it is because of him people are confused when their children show interest and behavior
typical of the opposite sex. However, studies of American psychologists do not confirm the statement that the
deviation from sex-role standards entails psychological mismatch [8]. Indeed, according to the concept of Boehm
[7], mental health should not have a gender, and androgyny has a positive effect on the psychological state of a
person.
The organization of mini-research
Mini-study examines the influence of gender stereotypes on the perception of males and females and the real
gender difference in some psychological aspects. The total sample of the study was 60 students (students 3 and 4
courses of the faculty of philosophy and political science KazNU. Al-Farabi), male – 15, female – 45 people.
Materials and methods
For the organization of mini-studies was used:
1. Method interviews with representatives of male and female students at the University, i.e. with both male
and female students.
2. Projective test Heckhausen on the measurement of achievement motivation – for diagnostics of motivation
of success and fear of failure. Test Heckhausen or TAT (variant of Hekhauzen) is aimed at diagnostics of two
motives — the hope of success (WELL) and fear of failure (bn). The two motifs believed to be related with
achievement motivation. Hope of success (COS) is a positive motivation, reflecting the installation of the subject
at the success, whereas fear of failure (bn) is linked to the negative setting of the subject and has a lot to do with
the motivation of avoidance.
Required material: 6 images TAT (the"business" version of X. Hekhauzen is designed to explore three types of
motivation [9]: a) achieve (D); b) power (C); C) affiliations (A) needs for love, attachment, group membership).
3. Sex-role questionnaire of Sandra BEM [10] as the most widely used tool for measuring how a grown man
evaluates himself from the point of view of gender.
The procedure is mini-research, processing and interpretation of results
1.The interview results were processed by comparing the fixed answers of the representatives of the male and
female sexes.
2. In the sex-role questionnaire of Sandra BEM respondents are encouraged to note in the list of those qualities
which, in their opinion, they have. Given a list of qualities consisting of 60 items arranged alternately. For
example, such qualities: belief in yourself; learn to compromise; the ability to help; tendency to defend their
views; cheerfulness; gloominess; independence; modesty; conscientiousness; athlete; tenderness; theatricality;
assertiveness, etc.
Each of the qualities the respondents to rate on a 7-point scale based on how accurately it describes it. Twenty
adjectives from this list are the scale of masculinity, another twenty are at the scale of femininity, and the
remaining twenty - neutral: jealous(-th), reliable(-ae), serious(-th), with great esteem, tactful(-th).

People who have the highest number of points as on a scale of masculinity and femininity scale, is considered
to be androgynous; those who scored high on the femininity scale, but low on the scale of masculinity, is
considered to be feminine; the same, whose score on a scale of masculinity much higher than the results on the
scale of femininity, is considered to be masculine. The term "undifferentiated" in the questionnaire indicated those
who scored equally low scores, on a scale of masculinity and femininity scale. The sex-typed person we call,
whose determination and behavior coincide with what is considered his society was gender-appropriate.
3. When using projective techniques TAT: pictures sequentially presented to the subject from the first to the
sixth (he looks at each 10-15 sec.).
Given a clear instruction: "You will be asked 6 images. Look within 10 seconds at the first picture, then
approximately 4 minutes to write an essay — a short story for this picture. Describe how you think, what preceded
the events depicted in the picture, what you feel and think in the moment, the participants of the events, how these
events will develop in the future. Then go to the second picture, etc., including the sixth".
First, subjects were asked, as well as in the classic TAT, to make coherent stories based on the pictures. The
theme of the pictures was quite specific and was related to achievement. Secondly, a projective test of
Heckhausen on the measurement of achievement motivation was used in three variants: under neutral conditions,
using stimulus (motivating statement) and using social incentives.
The results of mini-research
1. We describe the results of interviews with representatives of both sexes. When interviewing with
representatives of both males and females studying at University we found evidence favorable attitude towards
their gender group of male and female students, especially when we asked the subjects to identify which
characteristics are associated with women and some with men.
The analysis of the interview and the oral fixation of answers of respondents we were able to establish that the
majority of students (82.2 percent) consistently showed a more positive attitude to women than the one that
showed the majority of students (73.3 per cent) compared to women. Also the majority of students ( 87%) also
consistently showed a more positive attitude towards men than the one that showed female students (64.6 per
cent) compared to men.
In response to the question, in which males and females evaluated the characteristic human qualities, it became
clear that students evaluated the quality is higher in those cases where they were told that it is more characteristic
of their sex.
Also we found some convergence of young men and women about his own and the opposite sex (in gender
psychology of gender, they are called auto - and heterostereotype) and more frequent mismatches.
Here are a few examples in which sex differences are found. According to the majority of representatives of
both floors (93,3% of girls and 80% boys): 1) women are impulsive, emotional, cheerful, laugh a lot, longer
experiencing sadness, love to talk and are pleasant companions, among them more than those who never do not
drink alcohol, prudent, gentle and caring towards their children; prone to talking mainly about people; in sickness
try to stay positive and patient; 2) men cautious, less emotional, calm and thorough, sensible; independent in his
views; tell briefly, strictly adhering to the topic; more often satisfied with their abilities and behavior; prone to
talking mainly about the phenomena and the objective world; love games that require work of the mind, and more
risky gambling.
The discrepancy between auto - and heterostereotypes both sexes are represented in the following
characteristics.
The opinion of the majority of the girls (88.8 per cent) of women (compared with men): more persistent in the
exercise of their intent; attentive during lessons and during the occupation in any case; when you receive a job
immediately proceed to business; I love the neatness and order; truthful; punctual (not late, on time hand over of
the job); show the vehemence in conversation; good-natured; changeable in mood; more interested in new
experiences and new friends; I love trying new things, easy to perceive new; a practical and easily find the exit
from a difficult situation; Supervisory; more prone to self-criticism and recognize the superiority of others; polite;
have a beautiful and speech. The majority of young men (73,2%) claim that both sexes are the same.
The opinion of the majority of the girls (97.7 percent) of the males (compared to females) after the flash of
anger immediately put up, and some time upset; holding on to old habits; have a good memory; are more accurate
memorization and reproduction of information; punctual. Boys (93,3%) once again see no differences between the
sexes.

The opinion of more than half of respondents-boys (66.6 per cent) of the representatives of the female sex: a
lover of cleanliness and order; frivolous, i.e., inclined to hope that everything is settled (this is one of the biggest
mismatches, the divergence of opinion is almost 100%).
As you can see from the interview results gender stereotypes are changing, but differently for males and
females. So, if the stereotype of femininity developed in the nineteenth century, remains still popular (especially
among males): the woman should be gentle, beautiful, soft, gentle and at the same time, passive and dependent.
Then, on presentation of themselves and future women, they have to be intelligent, considered, energetic,
enterprising, to possess male qualities.
2. Projective test Heckhausen on the measurement of achievement motivation was used in three variants. Let
us recall them: 1) under neutral conditions, 2) using the stimulus (motivating statement) and 3) using social
incentives.
The first option was the neutral condition: subjects were asked to write stories on the TAT technique (based on
the presented images). In this case, the majority of female students (82.2 percent) showed a higher achievement
motivation than male students (60%).
The second option is called "motivational manual". First, respondents were given an incentive to achieve
success in the form of special instructions: it was reported that he will solve problems (anagrams), which test not
only intelligence but also leadership ability (ability to organize material and to quickly and accurately assess the
situation). Then, the subjects were stories to TAT pictures, and then solved the problems-anagrams. It turned out
that in this case are the young men (93.3%) of achievement motivation increased (they responded to encourage
user manual), and the girls – no (just 17.7% shown in this embodiment, the presence of a motive of hope of
success).
A third option was the use of social incentives associated with the adoption of the individual by other group
members. Here the results were completely different: both boys and girls increased their indicators of achievement
motivation, but boys – slightly (73.2 per cent showed a motif well), and the girls there was a sharp growth of this
indicator (in 91.1% of students are in this embodiment was shown the brighter hope of success).
Thus, we can say that the females showed higher motivation achievements in the neutral conditions, and the
young men to bolster the motivation needed special achievement (intellectual leadership) stimulation. In addition,
girls to motivate the necessary social incentives (related to the adoption group). I.e. the motive of the avoidance
(or fear) of success is not found in females (as suggested by the developers at the time), while certain conditions
stimulate them to hope for success, i.e., marked differences in achievement motivation for males and females is
not detected. In our view, these trends erase gender differences in motivation related to modern conditions of
competition in various fields and the same orientation of students, caused by dynamics and mobility of modern
society.
3. Processing the sex-role questionnaire of Sandra BEM on the study of masculinity – femininity showed that
the highest scores on a scale of masculinity gained students of the 4th course, the most feminine of the third – year
student, androgynous young men enrolled in the 3rd year. Thus from the total sample (60 students) sex-typed was
only 18.3% of students. I.e. modern students increasingly exhibit traits that are in demand in the society, girls are
becoming less feminine and men more androgynous.
The concept of androgyny implies that some of welcome qualities are "masculine" and some "feminine",
because it radically contradicts our intention to reduce gender polarization.
