Measure of societal gender expectations?

  • 1.  Measure of societal gender expectations?

    Posted 10-05-2015 17:06
    Hi all-

    I am moving from the qualitative to the quantitative portion of a study and am in need of a measure assessing perceived societal expectations for achievement or behavior. 

    I would like to assess individuals' perceptions of what society expects of them, specifically with respect to some gendered behaviors like "providing" or caring for children.

    Anyone know of such a measure?

    Thanks!

    Liz
