WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Brief Gender-Role Beliefs Scale (GBRS) Test

gender

This measure assesses endorsement of traditional gender-role beliefs using the Brief Gender-Role Beliefs Scale (GBRS). It is intended to provide a brief snapshot of attitudes about normative expectations for men’s and women’s roles that may inform clinical formulation or research questions.

The instrument contains 10 items and typically takes about 2 minutes to complete. Respondents rate statements reflecting conventional gender-role expectations; higher endorsement suggests a more traditional orientation, whereas lower endorsement may indicate more flexible or egalitarian beliefs. Originally developed by Ronald F. Levant, the Brief Gender-Role Beliefs Scale (GBRS) is commonly used to support discussion of cultural and interpersonal beliefs, and results should be interpreted in context with the individual’s background and presenting concerns.
