Abstract
Specific research on the sex roles of American-Indian women is lacking in mental health counseling. This article examines the sex role attributes of this population of women as compared to a predominately White normative group using the short form of the Bem Sex Role Inventory. A group of 505 American-Indian women completed the inventory. Results indicate a significant difference on the masculine subscale between the two groups with American-Indian women having higher scores. Available minority normative groups were also compared to the American-Indian women in this study. Implications for mental health counselors are provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
