Bem's original criteria have largely been shown to hold up. The original instrument is fairly old however, more modern, peer-reviewed replications of Bem's original work have time and again found a high degree of validity in the masculine and feminine adjectives that comprise the empirical basis of the instrument. Recent concerns regarding the validity of its scales have arisen as changes in society have also brought about changes in the roles of men and women. The CT-GRI/BSRI is a widely used index and instrument for measuring gender roles and gender role perceptions. The CT-GRI© is the property of IDR Labs International. The CT-GRI© is not the equivalent of, or to be confused with, the BSRI (Bem Sex-Role Inventory).
