Sex-Role Associations of Music Instruments and Occupations by Gender and Major.
Griswold, Philip A.; Chroback, Denise A.
Journal of Research in Music Education, v29 n1 p57-62 Spr 1981
Undergraduate music majors and nonmajors rated 17 musical instruments and two related musical occupations on a masculine/feminine scale. The harp, flute, and piccolo had high feminine ratings; the trumpet, string bass, and tuba had high masculine ratings. Instrument ratings were significantly different for major, but not for gender.
