title: Is the "Women's Movement" Erasing the Mark of Oppression from the Female Psyche.
abstract: Failures to replicate the Goldberg "female bias against females" effect led to the hypothesis that the "women's movement" has caused women to give lip service to equality. To test this hypothesis 42 American female college student Ss were asked to rate the capability of women and men to perform in various common professions. There were three conditions: bogus pipeline (BP), bogus pipeline control (RR), and questionnaire (Q). Equal or profemale ratings were expected in Q, profemale ratings in RR, and antifemale ratings in BP, because the expression of public (fashionable) attitudes was assumed appropriate in Q, but the expression of private attitudes was assumed appropriate in BP. Results indicated profemale bias in Q, but no sex bias in BP and RR. It was suggested that possible salutary effects of the women's movement are overestimated by typical questionnaire procedures.
