Abstract

In an attempt to replicate the findings of Hawley, 19 women majoring in Engineering, 15 in the Biological Sciences, and 19 in English completed a questionnaire indicating their personal and their assumed sex-role expectations of significant men in their lives. Neither expectations were related to major field of study; however, personal and assumed expectations were significantly correlated (.53 for the total sample). Hawley's conclusions do not appear to be as clear-cut as she assumed. Some suggestions for research were made.
