Σύνοψη	Gender schema measurement assesses the degree to which a person organises and processes information through the lens of gender. Grounded in Sandra Bem's 1981 gender schema theory, it treats sex typing not merely as a set of traits but as a cognitive readiness to sort the world — including the self — into masculine and feminine categories. Measurement combines self-report sex-typing scores, typically from the Bem Sex-Role Inventory, with experimental tasks that reveal how spontaneously a person uses gender to encode and recall information.	The Objectified Body Consciousness Scale (OBCS), developed by Nita McKinley and Janet Hyde in 1996, is a 24-item self-report instrument that measures the extent to which a person experiences their body as an object to be watched and evaluated. It comprises three 8-item subscales — body surveillance, body shame, and appearance control beliefs — grounded in the idea that women in particular internalise an observer's perspective on their own bodies.
