<jats:p> This study investigated the effect of gender on salary estimates and judgments about occupational suitability. The questionnaires, 1,300 in total, were distributed to randomly selected high schools in Newfoundland and Labrador for administration to students in Grades 10 and 12. The response rate was 82%. Results indicated that females provided lower salary estimates than males and were less likely to stereotype occupations on the basis of gender. In addition, academic achievement was negatively correlated with gender-based occupational stereotyping. An effect for religiosity was not observed. </jats:p>
