A study of the marriage role expectations of junior college students

It is the purpose of this study to explore the nature of the marriage role expectations of students who are enrolled in a junior college course in marriage and the family. By means of a questionnaire, students were assigned ranks on a scale ranging from traditional to equalitarian views of marriage roles. Sub-scale scores were obtained in the areas of authority, homemaking, care of children, personal characteristics, social participation, education, and employment and support. By means of Pearson product-moment correlations it was determined whether the above scores were independent of sex, social status, dominance, self-acceptance, socialization and flexibility.
