In this study the author investigated the relationship of depression to sex role orientation in women employed in a traditional female occupation. The specific purpose of the study was to assess whether women employed in nursing would be more likely to be expressive (feminine/sex typed) in their sex role orientation and to evaluate the degree of depression among women with high levels of expressive (feminine/sex-typed) characteristics. Results supported the hypothesis that nurses who subscribed to a traditional feminine role (feminine sex typing) had a greater vulnerability to depression. However, their rate of depression was significantly less than that found among women in general.
在本研究中，作者调查了从事传统女性职业的女性中抑郁与性别角色取向之间的关系。该研究的具体目的是评估从事护理工作的女性在性别角色取向上是否更倾向于表达性（女性化/性别类型化），并评估具有高表达性（女性化/性别类型化）特征的女性中的抑郁程度。结果支持了这样的假设，即认同传统女性角色（女性性别类型化）的护士更容易患抑郁症。然而，她们的抑郁率明显低于一般女性中的抑郁率。
