?:abstract
  • Issues surrounding the nature and structure of attitudes towards women's opportunity have yet to be fully explored. Building on Raymond Boudon's 'logic of relative frustration' (1986), this essay attempts to clarify the relationship between the levels of women's economic activity and perceptions of women's opportunity in higher education and in the occupational structure. Data from five Western, industrialized nations, collected through the International Social Survey Program in 1985, are used. It is suggested that the extent to which women have entered the public sphere will, by changing the character of the structures of competition, influence the ways in which beliefs about women's opportunity are formed. Two specific hypotheses are developed. First, that overall perceptions of gender discrimination will be higher in those nations with higher rates of female economic activity. Second, that the relative differences in perceptions by gender and structural position will be stronger in those same nations. While the first hypothesis is not supported, logistic regression analysis reveals that gender and educational attainment/occupational status effects are only found in those nations with the highest rates of female economic activity.
