The relationships of sex-role attributes and gender to perceptions of changes in intimacy and in the overall marital relationship were examined, as was the quality of that relationship following the birth of an infant. For a sample of 165 couples, positive changes in intimacy and in the overall relationship following delivery were positively related to marital quality at four months postpartum. Of gender and sex-role attributes, only femininity contributed significantly to the prediction of overall change and quality. None of the variables predicted perceived change in intimacy.
研究了性别角色属性和性别与亲密关系变化感知以及整体婚姻关系变化感知之间的关系，同时也研究了婴儿出生后婚姻关系的质量。对于165对夫妻的样本，分娩后亲密关系和整体关系的积极变化与产后四个月的婚姻质量呈正相关。在性别和性别角色属性中，只有女性气质对整体变化和质量的预测有显著贡献。没有一个变量能预测亲密关系的感知变化。
