Trust Scale

Scores of 106 male and 108 female high school students on Rotter's trust scale and self-reports of anti-social behavior and shoplifting indicated scores on Rotter's scale were related to self-reported untrustworthy behavior for girls. Low trusters more than high trusters tended to perceive others as distrusting students. Data are discussed in terms of the literature.

In a sample of 240 high school students cognitive performance differences related to sex, sex-role stereotype, and dissonance between perceived and ideal levels of masculinity/femininity were investigated. Three-way analysis of variance (Scheffé follow-up tests) showed significant interactions on three cognitive variables when stereotype was combined with dissonance. Students scoring higher on cognitive variables expressed dissonance in the direction of valuing more masculine personality traits. Results suggest that a catalyst with regard to individual differences in cognitive performance is the value placed on sex-related personality characteristics rather than sex or sex-role stereotype.
