Is Self-Esteem a Masculine Characteristic?
Thomas, Susan
Journal of Educational Equity and Leadership, v3 n1 p29-37 Spr 1983
Examines measurement scales used in different studies of the relationship between masculinity, femininity, or androgyny, and self esteem. Suggests that findings of a high positive association between masculinity and self-esteem may be due to the fact that the most commonly used measurement scales do, in fact, endorse masculine characteristics.
