Abstract
Can societal negative stereotypes and biases toward women be internalized
by women and measured using the Implicit Association Test (IAT)? Do these
implicit stereotypes impact a woman's implicit self-esteem without her being
cognizant of it?
Recent research shows a correlation between low implicit self-esteem and
poor mental health. The current study aims to examine the relationship
between implicit self-esteem, internalized negative stereotypes, and mental
health.
The IAT is used to measure implicit self-esteem and implicit gender bias. The
Mental Health Inventory-21 is used to measure mental health and the Self-
Attributes Questionnaire is another measure of self-esteem.
It was hypothesized that a correlation will be found between high gender bias, low self-esteem, and poor mental health.
