Itzkowitz, Stuart; Petrie, Donna

Journal of the NAWDAC, v46 n1 p26-31 Fall 1982

Compared gay women (N=11) with heterosexual women (N=12) for frequency of high and low fear of success responses. Probability analysis determined the two groups differed significantly, with gay women evidencing less fear of success than expected. Devised a continuum of kinds of responses with subsequent analysis. (Author)
