Measures of Androgyny
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page literature review that examines the various ways of
measuring androgyny. In examining the methods of measurement we illustrate some
specific studies which have researched individual androgynous concerns. With each of
these studies it becomes more and more apparent that the most widely recognized
measuring scale is the Bem Sex-Role Inventory, which essentially defines the masculine
and feminine characteristics of an individual through the use of a questionnaire that uses
adjectives with which the subject can rate themselves. While there are other methods, and
while Bem’s inventory may not address all the issues of a particular study, the Bem
Sex-Role Inventory is the most widely implemented measurement device in regards to
androgyny. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The writer reacts to the performance of various characters, examples of stereotyping, points being made, and the overall emotional effectiveness of the film. No Bibliography.
