The effects of reading career materials containing nontraditional role models were studied. Ninth-grade students (N = 288) read job descriptions derived in part from interviews with people who have careers that are nontraditional for their sex. They then rated occupations as appropriate for men, women, or both men and women. Jobs read about received significantly more "both" responses than jobs not read about. Also, females chose more "both" responses than males, and all students assigned "both" ratings more often to male sextyped jobs than to female sex-typed jobs. Results suggest three major conclusions: (a) Student attitudes toward sex-typed careers can be changed by exposure to career information containing nontraditional role models, (b) Females have less sex-typed attitudes about the sex-appropriateness of careers than do males, (c) All students think it is more appropriate for women to enter traditionally male careers than for men to enter traditionally female careers.

Equity in the promotion of women and underrepresented minorities (URiM) is essential for the advancement of academic emergency medicine and the specialty as a whole.

It is intended to complement the recently approved American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) policy statement
