Title

Women in STEM: Impact of Gender Stereotypes

Abstract

Gender and ability stereotypes have a detrimental impact on the retention of women in STEM disciplines and careers. Despite the existence of biologically rooted gender differences in abilities and interests, these differences are often wrongly emphasized as a primary reason for the significant gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. However, recent accomplishments by women in the science and technology fields underscore the profound influence of culture and learning environments in shaping abilities and interests. It's noteworthy that women frequently underestimate their capabilities in comparison to their male counterparts. The biographies of female scientists reveal a troubling trend of women being systematically guided away from science and mathematics during their educational journeys. This diversion restricts their opportunities, readiness, and access to engage in these critical fields. Demonstrated instances underscore the incontrovertible potential of women to assume pivotal roles in advancing global progress and sustainability when empowered with educational and occupational avenues in science, technology, and innovation. Research indicates that female scientists contend with heightened levels of work-related stress, an inadequate work-life balance, and instances of sexual harassment. However, strategies that prioritize a female-friendly work environment, such as inclusive management policies, flexible work arrangements, and equitable performance evaluations, have shown promise in alleviating stress and enhancing work-life equilibrium for women within STEM fields. These measures consequently contribute to heightened productivity among female professionals in STEM.
