Abstract
The major focus of this study was to examine the relationship between television viewing by women and their attitudes toward women and sex-role orientation. The Spence and Helmreich (1972) Attitudes Toward Women Scale was used to measure Women's attitudes toward their rights and roles. Sex-role orientation was measured by Bern' s Sex- Role Inventory (1977). These measures were used to determine whether the amount of TV women viewed was associated with their liberal or conservative attitudes towards women's rights and roles.
