WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Gender Personality Characteristics Questionnaire Test

gender

This questionnaire is designed to assess self-reported gender-related personality characteristics and attitudes. The Gender Personality Characteristics Questionnaire provides a structured way to describe endorsement of gender-role attributes and related beliefs in a standardized format.

The measure includes 60 items and typically takes about 11 minutes to complete. Items are generally rated using a fixed response scale, and scores are interpreted in relation to the individual’s pattern of responses; it was originally developed by Sandra L. Bem.

The Gender Personality Characteristics Questionnaire may be used in clinical, counseling, or research settings to support case formulation, facilitate discussion of gender-role expectations, and monitor change over time when appropriate. Results should be considered alongside clinical interview data and other relevant measures.
