Abstract

Obtained normative data and MMPI correlates of two measures of sex role orientation (Bem Sex Role Inventory and Extended Personal Attributes Questionnaire) in a sample of male psychiatric inpatients (N = 55). Means and subscale intercorrelations similar to those found in college samples were found for each sex role scale. With regard to self-reports of psychopathology, desirable masculine traits generally were related positively to adjustment, undesirable masculine and feminine traits were related negatively, and desirable feminine traits were unrelated to pathology. No consistent sex role correlates with MMPI MF were found, contrary to previous research with normal groups.
