Gender role attitudes measure opinions about men's and women's roles in society. The attitudes can guide individual behaviors and policy decisions. This dissertation explores the generation of gender role attitudes in the family, how the attitudes change women's social participation with other indicators, and whether it can predict gendered policies that protect women's rights. This is the first study to focus on the transmission of gender role attitudes inside families in China. It also collects province-level data on gender role attitudes in China and analyzes the dynamics between gender ideology and gendered policy. This dissertation also uses comparative methods to study the role of gender ideology in women's labor force participation and political representation.In the second chapter, I find that parental behaviors, such as the distribution of housework, have significant correlations with children's knowledge of gender equality in China. When parents undertake housework responsibilities more equally, it is associated with the finding that children would better understand gender equality. The correlation differentiates in various family patterns based on the number of children and their genders. The third and fourth chapters examine the impact of gender role attitudes. The third chapter evaluates the effect of female political representation on the gender gap in labor force participation, along with the influence of gender role attitudes and paid maternity leave. I find that female representation influences women in the labor market majorly through gendered policy in developing countries, which has an immediate effect but may not last in the long term. In developed countries, gender role attitudes are the key factor in the relationship between political representation and labor force participation.The fourth chapter examines the geographic distribution of gender role attitudes at the province level in China. I also analyze the association between gender ideology and gendered policy. Although provincial gender role attitudes are not a significant factor in explaining policy change, they still provide insights into how provincial governments in China make policy decisions. It also shows that social development, rural-urban segregation, cultural traditions, and ethnic groups are profoundly associated with local policymaking on gender.
