- W209069774 abstract "The utility of a design measuring actual, ideal, and expected sexrole attitudes was demonstrated with a 25-item survey administered to 155 undergraduate men and women under different instructional sets. Although relatively liberal attitudes were expressed overall, men generally expressed less egalitarian attitudes than did women. Moreover, distinct patterns of optimism and pessimism were revealed in relation to anticipated changes in sex roles. Gender generally did not interact with instructional set, however, there were some notable exceptions. Although the sexes agreed that men take less responsibility in the home than is ideal, not surprisingly men perceives, more present equality in thip area than women did--and women, but not mei., anticipated significant change in the future. Similarly, women perceived less present equity in the areas of pay and job opportunity than did men, and although both sexes were guardedly optimistic about the prospects for continued strides toward equality in these areas, this was particularly true for women. Neither sex expected complete equality in the foreseeable future. The results were discussed in relation to literature on sex-role attitudes as well as their relevance to the struggle for sexual equality. 6 3 Patterns of Optimism and Pessimism in Perceptions of Changing Sex Roles Changing patterns of sex-role attitudes and values have been carefully examined in recent years (Cherlin & Walters, 1981; Helmreich, Spence, & Gibson, 1982; Mason, Czajka, & Arber, 1976; Thornton, Alwin, & Camburn, 1983; Thornton & Freedman, 1979). The overall trend has been toward less conservative and traditional views, particularly regarding sexual equality in academic and career opportunities and, possibly tc a lesser extent, the sexual division of labor in the home (Merriam & Hyer, 1984). Women generally express more egalitarian attitudes than men (Beere, King, Beere, & King, 1984; Helmreich et al., 1982; Osmond & Martin, 1975; Spence & Helmreich, 1978). Some researchers (e.g., Thornton et al., 1983) have reported a continued trend toward egalitarian attitudes into the 1980's, while others (e.g., Helmreich et al., 1982) have reported an apparent deceleration of that trend and in certain respects (vocational equality, marriage and family roles) a reversal, particularly among women. Although the latter observations require further corroboration, they do underscore a need to focus on specific issuesavoiding measurement of global attitudes--and seem to warrant continued scrutiny of sex-role attitudes. The present study offers a technique of gauging prevailing trends in sex-role attitudes which to our knowledge has never been used. Studies in this area commonly measure idealized sex-role values. One of the most widely used instruments of this type is the Attitudes Toward Women Scale (Spence & Helmreich, 1972, 1978)." @default.
