Conversely, evolutionary and self-construal theorists suggest that gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in more egalitarian countries, reflecting the greater autonomy support and flexible self-construction processes present in these countries. Using data from 62 countries (N = 28,640) we examine binary gender gaps in agentic and communal self-views as a function of country-level objective gender equality (the Global Gender Gap Index) and subjective distributions of social power (the Power Distance Index). Findings show that in more egalitarian countries, gender gaps in agency are smaller, and gender gaps in communality are larger. These patterns are driven primarily by cross-country differences in men’s self-views, and by the PDI more robustly than the GGGI. We consider possible causes and implications of these findings.enCommunality, agency, self-views, binary sex differences, egalitarianism, gender equalityArticle
