Fifty-eight primiparous women were studied to explore perceived differences in femininity between women who chose to breastfeed and women who chose to bottlefeed. A demographic questionnaire and a sex role inventory were administered to the sample. Although breast and bottlefeeders did not differ significantly in their perceived levels of femininity, analysis of the data revealed that women who had no clear cut sense of identity were more likely to bottlefeed.
对58名初产妇进行了研究，以探讨选择母乳喂养的女性和选择奶瓶喂养的女性在女性气质方面的感知差异。对样本进行了人口统计学调查问卷和性别角色量表的施测。尽管母乳喂养者和奶瓶喂养者在女性气质的感知水平上没有显著差异，但数据分析显示，没有明确身份认同感的女性更有可能选择奶瓶喂养。
