Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship of sex role orientation to indices of psychological well-being among 113 Black multiple-role working women. Analyses revealed significant differences among the four sex-typed groups on self-esteem and depression. The sex-typed group had significantly higher depression and lower self-esteem scores than the androgynous group. The undifferentiated group had significantly higher depression and lower self-esteem scores when compared with the androgynous and cross-typed groups. There were no significant differences between the four sex-typed groups on role conflict or life satisfaction. Further research is needed to understand how different sex role orientations support different roles that Black women occupy.
