Abstract

This study explored the relationships between authoritarianism, work motivation, and occupational sex-role typing. There was a direct positive relationship between high F scores, extrinsic work motivation, and rigid occupational sex-role typing and between low F scores, intrinsic work motivation and flexible occupational sex-role typing. The way in which this directly affects men's perceptions about women at work is discussed. The study presented here explores a constellation of personality traits and attitudes related to authoritarianism and examines their contribution to a particular pattern of social and political perception.
