The hypothesis that clinicians' perceptions of psychological maladjustment are related to the deviation of symptoms from prevailing gender role stereotypes was explored. Case history descriptions were sent to a random sample of practicing psychologists. These clinicians viewed female patients with "masculine" symptoms (e.g., alcoholism or antisocial behavior) as more psychologically disturbed than males with the same symptoms; they also perceived male patients with "feminine" symptoms (e.g., depression and anxiety) as more psychologically disturbed than their female counterparts. Significant main effects for psychologists' sex were found for both the perceived usefulness of drug treatment and prognostic outlook ratings.
研究了临床医生对心理失调的认知与症状偏离主流性别角色刻板印象之间的关系这一假设。病例史描述被发送给一组随机抽取的执业心理学家。这些临床医生认为有“男性化”症状（如酗酒或反社会行为）的女性患者比有相同症状的男性患者心理问题更严重；他们还认为有“女性化”症状（如抑郁和焦虑）的男性患者比有相同症状的女性患者心理问题更严重。在药物治疗的感知有用性和预后前景评级方面，均发现了心理学家性别的显著主效应。
