The effects of maternal employment on the sex role development of offspringHricik, Debra A. January 1984 (has links)
The present study examined the relationship between the sex role orientations of college students and their mothers' employment history. The Bem Sex Role Inventory (BSRI) and a Parental Employment History Questionnaire were administered to 151 male and female undergraduates. Sixutilized standard score measures of sex role orientation from the BSRI as criterion variables. Predictor variables included sex of subjects, parents in the home, type of maternal employment and number of years mothers worked in full or part time postions. No significant relationships were determined between maternal employment and the sex role orientations of adult offspring. Implications and possible avenues for further research in sex role and maternal employment research are discussed.

Effects of perceiver's sex-role orientation, target's sex-role preference and occupational choice on the attractiveness of competent womenMariatou-Metaxa, Eugenia January 1982 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the self-reported sex-role orientation of hale and female undergraduate college students and their perceived attraction to women with differing occupational choices (traditional vs nontraditional) and stated sex-role preferences (gender congruent vs incongruent). It was expected that androgynous and sex-typed subjects would view differently women with differing occupational and behavior styles.The Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) was utilized to assess the sex-role orientation of 241 subjects. The data are based on 40 sex-typed and 40 androgynous male and female undergraduate students. An Interpersonal Rating Form was used to assess subjects' attraction to the stimulus persons. Seven planned comparisons were made to test the research hypotheses using t-tests. The level of significance was set at p < .01 level.Findings1. Sex-typed males showed no significant difference on their social and work attraction between a woman who expresses a gender congruent sex-role preference and a woman who expresses a gender incongruent sex-role preference (irrespective of the woman's occupational choice, traditional or nontraditional).2. Sex-typed females showed a significantly greater social and work attraction to the gender congruent than to the gender incongruent woman in both the traditional and nontraditional occupation condition.3. Sex-typed males and females did not show a greater social and work attraction to the woman who chooses a traditional occupation than to the woman who chooses a nontraditional occupation (irrespective of the woman's sex-role preference, gender congruent or incongruent).4. Androgynous males and females tended not to discriminate in their social and work attraction between the nontraditional, gender congruent and the nontraditional, gender incongruent woman.5. Androgynous males and females did not show a greater social and work attraction to the women who choose a nontraditional occupation and who are gender incongruent than sex-typed males and females.Conclusions1. Subjects' sex-role orientation might not be a good predictor of their responses to individuals with various sex-role identities.2. The BSRI might not be the appropriate instrument to measure global sex-role attitudes and behaviors.3. The results might be the outcome of the nonseguential relationship between attitudes and behaviors.

Personality and the awareness of God in Zinaida Gippius's theory of androgynyRobinson, Liam. January 2001 (has links)
Zinaida Gippius's literary works are striking for the development of the theme of androgyny. / Chapter One examines the major Russian Symbolist intellectuals in their treatment of androgyny, which was animated by a desire to transfigure the world. Gippius's treatment of androgyny was at odds with the prevailing theory because it was not based on the defeminization of humanity. / Chapter Two addresses Gippius's reconstruction of Symbolist androgyny theory and explains the rejection of gender-based motivation in her metaphysical system by its orientation toward personality and an awareness of God. / Chapter Three shows how she used her poetry and prose to advance her belief that a perfect, androgynous love could reunite humanity with God. While Gippius's prose describes the search for this type of love, her poetry deals with it as a lyric experience. / The religious motivations of Gippius's redefinition of Symbolist androgyny indicate the need to re-evaluate the place of Orthodox Christianity in the evolution of Russian Symbolism.

Adult development : traits of instrumentality and expressivenessMiller, Marian M. January 1987 (has links)
The purpose of this research was to examine significant change, if any, in instrumental and expressive traits during adulthood. The research was designed to test the assumption that chronological age and psychosocial stage are related to instrumentality and expressiveness.The present study utilized the Personal Attributes Questionnaire (PAQ) and a personal information questionnaire. The research question was: Are there differences in traits of instrumentality and expressiveness at different stages of adult development?Three hundred sixty-three men and women between the ages of 20 and 70 participated in the study. The sample included 164 men and 197 warren. Participants were members of volunteer organizations. They were assigned to different groups based on age and psychosocial development.Four 3 x 3 Analyses of Variance procedures were performed. There were three levels of age: (1) 20-35, (2) 36-50, and (3) 51-70. Categorization of psychosocial stage included: (1) no children, (2) children from birth to graduation from high school, and (3) all children graduated from high school. Sex was not combined, rather separate analysis was performed on each sex. The dependent variables were expressiveness and instrumentality as defined by scores on the Personal Attributes Questionnaire. The following effects were studied:(1) Effects of age and psychosocial stage on traits of instrumentality in men.(2) Effects of age and psychosocial stage on traits of expressiveness in men.(3) Effects of age and psychosocial stage on traits of instrumentality in women.(4) Effect of age and psychosocial stage on traits of expressiveness in women.The results of the research indicated that traits of instrumentality and expressiveness in men and women do not change significantly during adulthood. No significant differences were found in men or women with regard to age and psychosocial development on traits of instrumentality and expressiveness.

The relationship between psychological androgyny and attitudes towards women, self-actualization, and concepts of adjustmentFinlay, Helen Ann January 1983 (has links)
In accordance with American findings, it was proposed that androgynous individuals would be more liberal in their attitudes towards women and more self-actualizing than sex-typed individuals, and that they would tend to conceptualize the well-adjusted person as androgynous, while the sex-typed individual would tend to conceptualize such a person as masculine. It was further hypothesized that sex differences in favour of the female subjects would be found on the first two variables. The Bern Sex-Role Inventory, Shostrom's Personal Orientation Inventory and Spence and Helmreich's Attitudes Toward Women Scale were applied to 192 school counsellors in training and in the field. The hypotheses regarding an androgynous as opposed to a sex-typed orientation on the variables attitudes toward women and self-actualization were not supported; nor were sex-typed individuals found to conceptualize a well-adjusted person as masculine . Sex differences in favour of female subjects were found on the Attitudes Toward Women Scale and on some of the Personal Orientation Inventory scales, and androgynous subjects were found to hold an androgynous model of adjustment.
