From population statistics variables, we can inquire into the degree of gender role stereotype and the gender fit in sports towards test-receivers. The test-receivers’ cognition of the gender role and the gender fit in sports differs when they participated in different items which were high, moderate or low suitably for their gender. Besides, we also analyzed whether there was obvious difference between the gender cognition and the gender fit in sports when test-receivers conformed themselves to an ideal gender attribute. This researcher used the questionnaires of “the relationship between the gender role and college students’ participation in sports” to collect the data. Students in physical education department and the common college were both chose as the research samples to fill out the questionnaires by the way of random sampling. Concern with this survey, we sent 1030 questionnaires and received 832 ones back. After analyzing by descriptive statistic, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson product-moment correlation, we got the following results: First, the object of this study contains 444 male people and 388 female people. In the aspect of the sports involvement degree, there are 240 people in the group A and 15 in the group B. There are also 118 people in the Athletics association and 459 people of general university students. The whole test-receiver's gender stereotype are higher than the average in two levels of the" personality characteristic" and" occupation" Moreover, in the level of an ideal gender stereotype in sports among college students, the state is in right-skewed distritution. Second, both male and female people get to the level of significance of the gender role stereotype degree in many aspects such as” gender role stereotype”,” personality characteristic”, ”family affairs”, ”activities or games” and” occupation”, etc. High involvement degree is obviously higher than both moderate and low in three aspects like ” gender role stereotype”, ” personality characteristic”, ”activities or games” and so on. In addition, high involvement degree is obviously higher than low in other two aspects. Third, both male and female people get to the level of significance of an ideal gender role stereotype degree in sports. Male people get the higher scores than female in this case. The test-receivers with different involvement degree don’t get to the level of significance in the ideal gender role stereotype degree in sports. We can find that both male and female people get to the level of significance of the gender fit in sports. Also, male people obviously get the higher standard than female. Fourth, the gender fit of the test-receivers with different involvement degree in sports get to the level of significance. The test-receivers with high involvement degree obviously get higher standard than those with low involvement degree do. Therefore, there is close relationship between the gender fit and the ideal gender role stereotype degree in sports. Keywords：Sex role, Sports involvement, Gender stereotype
