Abstract

This study examined the relationship between scores on the Bem Sex-Role Inventory and a newly developed scale designed to measure external sexism, internal sexism, and perceived innate sex differences. Both scales were administered to 85 female and 28 male undergraduates. There was a significant main effect for sex, with men having higher sexism scores than women. Both men and women scored significantly higher on internal sexism, the measure over familial division of labor. There was a significant interaction of sexism scores × sex-role groups; traditional sex-role groups scored highest on internal sexism and perceived innate sex differences.
