  • Evidence for changing gender-role attitudes in Slovenia in comparison to the United States
    Frieze, Irene Hanson ; Ferligoj, Anuška
    A number of academic and popular writers have suggested that the changes in Eastern and Central Europe from a socialist or communist economy to a market-based economy, and the emergence of several ... independent countries in this region of the world have led to decreases in the largely egalitarian attitudes about gender found previously. These ideas were tested by comparing gender-role attitudes in 1991 with those in 1993, using samples of college students from Slovenia (n=371) and the United States (n=326). Results indicatethat changes in college students in Slovenia are more complex than previously believed. Data show a significant jncrease in women's egalitarian ideas in Slovenia. Religion was found to predict traditionality, as expected.
