Stereotype threat refers to the concern of being judged based on stereotypes about one's social group. This preregistered meta-analysis examines the correlates of stereotype threat in the workplace ( = 61 independent samples, 40,134). Results showed that stereotype threat was positively related to exhaustion, identity separation, negative affect, turnover intentions, and behavioral coping, and negatively related to career aspirations, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, job engagement, job performance, positive affect, self-efficacy, and work authenticity. In addition, moderator analyses for constructs represented in at least = 10 samples in the focal analyses showed that relations did not differ for measures of stereotype threat and stigma consciousness. However, the negative relationships between stereotype threat and career aspirations, job satisfaction, and job engagement were stronger for older employees compared with female employees as the stereotyped group. Overall, the findings suggest that stereotype threat constitutes an important stressor in the workplace.
刻板印象威胁是指担心因对自己社会群体的刻板印象而受到评判。这项预先注册的元分析考察了职场中刻板印象威胁的相关因素（61个独立样本，共40134人）。结果表明，刻板印象威胁与倦怠、身份认同分离、消极情绪、离职意图和行为应对呈正相关，与职业抱负、工作满意度、组织承诺、工作投入、工作绩效、积极情绪、自我效能感和工作真实性呈负相关。此外，在焦点分析中对至少10个样本中出现的构念进行的调节分析表明，刻板印象威胁和污名意识的测量结果之间的关系没有差异。然而，与作为刻板印象群体的女性员工相比，年长员工的刻板印象威胁与职业抱负、工作满意度和工作投入之间的负相关更强。总体而言，研究结果表明刻板印象威胁是职场中的一个重要压力源。
