When inspecting the dependent variables (see Table 2), women, on average, were
found to mostly disagree with the statement that men should provide for their families
and women should remain at home, while the average man neither agreed nor disagreed
with the statement. This suggests that men are more likely than women to support the
traditional gendered division of labor. Men neither disagreed nor agreed with thestatement asserting that preschool-aged children suffer when their mothers are employed,
while women mostly disagreed with this suggestion. In addition, women mostly agreed
with the assertion that working mothers can establish warm relationships with their
children, while men neither agreed nor disagreed with this declaration. This denotes that
women approve of maternal employment more than do men.
