摘要
Stereotypes may influence performance of stereotyped individuals by means of stereotype internalization and/or by means of stereotype threatening situations. The present study investigated the joint influence of those mechanisms on women's math performance, taking stereotype endorsement as a proxy for internalization. Results show that, congruent with our hypotheses, women's performance was lowest when they were led to endorse the stereotype that their group lacks math ability and they were placed in a stereotype threat situation. However, a more equalitarian environment resulted in women endorsing less their group stereotype and in a better math performance in an otherwise threatening situation.
