|a Differences in Hispanic and European American gender role attitudes have been found, but little research has directly compared Cuban Americans and European Americans. One theoretical orientation asserts that gender roles are determined by evolutionary factors, while other theories assert that social roles or social construction determine gender roles. The proposed study examined attitudes toward gender roles in Cuban American and European American men and women using the Attitudes toward Women Scale, the Social Roles Questionnaire, and a demographic questionnaire. It was found that regardless of culture, men have significantly more traditional/gender-linked attitudes toward gender/social roles than women do. These results support the findings available in the current body of literature, which assert that women have more liberal attitudes toward gender roles than men. It was also found that Cuban American men have significantly more gender linked attitudes toward social roles than Cuban American women, but when attitudes towards the gender roles of women were analyzed, no significant difference was found between Cuban American men and Cuban American women. The theoretical implications of these results are that gender may no longer be seen as bipolar sets of gender-specific desirable attributes, but rather, it is currently viewed as a more complex, multifaceted, social construct. |
