Abstract
Considerable attention has been devoted to differences in employment experiences between men and women since the passage of Title VII almost 60 years ago. This study analyzes survey data collected 20 years ago (N=231) against recent survey data collected in the same manner (N=365) to determine if perceptions regarding job selection decisions have changed over the last 20 years. An important contribution of this study is in its methodology. It assesses raw data collected 20 years ago against recent data in a hierarchal regression model to determine if there are differences in the effect size of gender role biases between the two generations. Results suggest that gender biases in the job selection dyad are beginning to disappear for the younger generation of workers.
