Results of this study of 293 American working women and men showed that gender had a significant main effect on sex role conflict, with a significantly greater effect on women than on men. The combination effects of gender and sex role orientation had no significant impact on sex role conflict scores for the total sample and for the women subjects. But males with masculine sex role orientation scored higher in sex role conflict than those with feminine, undifferentiated, or androgynous gender identity.
