Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of research examining gender role conflict, namely, the stress resulting from proscribed normative gender roles within and across diverse groups in the United States. Attention is given to the challenges related to the intersection of gender with other social identities, and emphasis is placed on the issues arising from gender roles in combination with stigmatized identities. Implications of gender role conflict for the psychological assessment and treatment of African Americans, Asian Americans, Latinas/os, and Native Americans are presented. Specific recommendations are suggested for future gender role conflict research with culturally diverse populations.
