Abstract: We aims to explore the evolution of gender roles and social status of Chinese women. Initially, we examine the transformation from matriarchal to patriarchal societies under the influence of economic, political, and sociocultural factors, and their profound impact on gender role perceptions, which have become an integral part of individual subconsciousness. Secondly, we compare the national and societal factors in China and Western countries that contribute to the elevation of women’s status, analyzing the underlying influences within Chinese women’s gender role perceptions. Lastly, the Anima/Animus archetype theory from analytical psychology has been introduced to discuss the role of depth psychological theories in the development and integration of gender role concepts.本文旨在探讨中国女性性别角色与社会地位的演变。首先,本文从社会心理学视角探讨女性在经济、政治和社会文化因素影响下,从母权制到父权制社会的转变,及其对性别角色观念的深刻影响,这些观念已成为个体潜意识的一部分。其次,本文比较中国与西方国家在提升女性地位方面的国家和社会因素,分析中国女性性别角色观念中的潜在影响。最后,本文引入分析心理学中阿尼玛/阿尼姆斯原型理论,探讨深度心理学理论在促进性别角色观念发展与整合中的作用。
