Research in Higher Education, v31 n2 p177-92 Apr 1990
A study comparing personality traits, demographic variables, and sex-role orientation of Israeli women studying engineering as compared with women studying humanities and males studying engineering found female engineering students to be more feminist, have "realistic" or "investigative" personality types, and have college-educated parents. Male and female engineering students differed little. (Author/MSE)
