Differences in self-reported assertiveness associated with sex, age, cultural or ethnic group, and ordinal position (birth order) were examined. 782 undergraduate students completed the Rathus Assertiveness Schedule and provided the demographic information mentioned above. Men reported being more assertive than women. Older students indicated they were more assertive than younger students. Mexican-American women reported acting less assertively than Mexican-American men and Anglo-American women and men. This assessment of trait assertiveness was positively correlated with ratings of behavioral dominance in discussion groups.

A modified version of the Illinois Department of Public Health Smokeless Tobacco Survey was administered to 220 women and 134 men attending a state university in New Mexico. The respondents included 65 male and 83 female Mexican-Americans as well as 118 female and 59 male Anglo-Americans. All Mexican-American women identified themselves as nonusers of smokeless tobacco. Of the Anglo-American women, one indicated that she used snuff, and 3 disclosed that they chewed tobacco. 33% of the Anglo-American men and 18% of the Mexican-American men stated that they used smokeless tobacco products. A chi-squared analysis showed this difference was significant. Implications are discussed.
