Attitudinal data obtained from interviewing random samples of women and men physicians in metropolitan Detroit indicated that women were generally more liberal and egalitarian than men. Older women were more liberal/egalitarian than older men while younger men were closer in attitudes to younger women. Within specialities, women and men physicians frequently held similar attitudinal scores; however, controlling for age, sex accounted for more variation than did specialty. A weighted combination of variables which together most significantly discriminated between age and sex subgroups pointed to a sensitivity dimension. This was stronger in the women; yet men demonstrating a similar sensitivity were found in almost every age and specialty grouping. Although younger men physicians are less conservative than older men physicians, both younger and older women physicians demonstrated strong liberalism/egalitarianism.
从底特律都会区随机抽取的女性和男性医生样本访谈中获得的态度数据表明，女性总体上比男性更自由和平等。年长女性比年长男性更自由/平等，而年轻男性在态度上与年轻女性更接近。在各个专业领域内，女性和男性医生的态度得分经常相似；然而，在控制年龄后，性别比专业解释了更多的差异。一组变量的加权组合在年龄和性别亚组之间最显著地区分出来，指向一个敏感维度。这在女性中更强；然而，几乎在每个年龄和专业分组中都发现了表现出类似敏感性的男性。尽管年轻男性医生不如年长男性医生保守，但年轻和年长的女性医生都表现出强烈的自由主义/平等主义。
