Male and female self-stereotype, and metaperception were studied in a 613-University student sample (291 men, 322 women). Seventy-nine bipolar items from the Factorial Scales of Self-concept were used as a measure. Factor analyses of items were independently calculated for their application to both men and women. The principal findings were as follows: 1) Male stereotype basically includes instrumental characteristics while female stereotype includes expressive as well as instrumental attributes; 2) Male and female self-stereotypes are in accordance with their respective stereotypes; 3) Men as well as women have a fairly accurate idea of how they are perceived by the opposite sex.
