Sex Roles: A Journal of Research, v5 n6 p765-81 Dec 1979

A random sample of 369 middle-class California women were divided into feminine, androgynous, masculine, and undifferentiated categories based on Bem Sex Role Inventory scores. Significant demographic time utilization, personality, and attitudinal differences were found to be consistent with sex typing. Differences in health were not found. (Author/GC)
