Alice Eagly  

Definition(s)

  • Why do men possess more power than women in so many cultures? Does this reflect evolved differences in aptitudes or socially imposed strictures that favor men and discourage women from obtaining positions of power? Few have made as significant theoretical and empirical contributions to understanding these questions as has Alice Hendrickson Eagly. Eagly's early interests in attitudes led her (in the 1970s) to a critical examination of findings that women are more easily influenced than men. [Source: Encyclopedia of Power; Eagly, Alice]
