Meta-stereotypes were linked to lower employability beliefs for stigmatized groups. For example, women and minorities in the workplace showed increase self-doubt, lower self-esteem, and undermined attitudes towards their ability to obtain a job. [20] Research has also shown that meta-stereotypes affect older age individuals.
A variant of stereotype boost is stereotype lift, which is people achieving better performance because of exposure to negative stereotypes about other social groups. [ 17 ] Some researchers have suggested that stereotype threat should not be interpreted as a factor in real-life performance gaps, and have raised the possibility of publication bias .

Stereotypes are often overgeneralized, inaccurate, and resistant to new information. [3] A stereotype does not necessarily need to be a negative assumption. They may be positive, neutral, or negative.
The second component of this model centers on the linking of labeled differences with stereotypes. Goffman's 1963 work made this aspect of stigma prominent and it has remained so ever since. This process of applying certain stereotypes to differentiated groups of individuals has attracted a large amount of attention and research in recent decades.

The stereotype fit hypothesis was developed by Heilman [7] in order to evaluate the current role of women in high-power positions in the workplace. [2] Since Heilman's initial research, many studies have been conducted to determine how women are affected by job positions which are considered to be more masculine.
