| Summary: | Prior research measures gender-role attitudes among Christians. However, these measures are generally limited to societal and familial contexts. Little prior research has examined gender-role attitudes in conservative Christian religious contexts. Research that has focused on religious contexts is qualitative or uses simple measures that are not validated. Therefore, the present paper presents data from two national samples describing the psychometric properties of the attitudes toward gender roles in conservative Christian contexts scale. Ways in which this scale can be used to measure adherents' gender-role attitudes in congregational settings are addressed. |
