  1. (, Socius)
    This study explores how the gender gap in aspirations for STEM work changes with societal affluence. Over-time data on eighth-graders in 32 countries reveal that aspirations for mathematically-related work become more gender-differentiated as societal affluence grows. This relationship holds controlling for students’ social class backgrounds, mathematical achievement, and affinity for school, and it is not explained by cross-national differences in the economic integration of women, gender stereotyping of science, or Internet access. Observed patterns of gender segregation reflect more than just women’s greater freedom to indulge tastes for non-STEM work in affluent societies – tastes are themselves more gendered in these contexts.
