Student Assessment of Teacher Masculinity and Femininity: A Test of the Sex Role Congruency Hypothesis on Student Attitudes toward Learning.
Wheeless, Virginia Eman; Potorti, Paul F.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v81 n2 p259-62 Jun 1989
The impact of teacher and student sex differences and student assessment of teacher sex role orientation on student attitudes toward learning was examined with 252 undergraduate students, each evaluating 1 teacher. Results do not support the sex role congruency hypothesis. Students were more affected by overall teacher qualities. (SLD)
