TY - JOUR PY - 1983// TI - The effect of intergender conflict on sex-role attitudes JO - Sex roles A1 - Dworkin, Rosalind J. A1 - Dworkin, Anthony Gary SP - 49 EP - 57 VL - 9 IS - 1 N2 - This study explored conditions under which initially multidimensional attitudes change and coalesce into unidimensionality. One hundred twenty-one college students participated in a pretest-posttest control group experimental design involving a prejudice reduction simulation. One group was exposed to overt statements and action that supported traditional male dominance. This group exhibited significantly more modern sex-role attitudes than did the other groups; and the former's attitudes shifted to unidimensionality while the others' attitudes did not. The data also suggest independence between techniques that produce racial/liberalism and sexrole attitude modernity.
