Abstract
One hundred thirty-eight female introductory psychology students at a southern state university were given the Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scale, Schaefer's Biographical Inventory Creativity, What Kind of Person Are You, Equalitarianism (Forms A and B), and four scales by the authors: Women's Views of Contraception, Sex-Role Questionnaire, Can Do, and Should Do (the last two deal with women's occupations). Women's Views of Contraception correlated with the five sex-roles scales and the creativity measures. Anxiety was related to Women's Views of Contraception and all sex-role scales except Equalitarianism Form A. The authors speculate that the rapidly changing roles of women tend to increase anxiety.Keywords
