Abstract
An opinion survey on sex-equity concerns was conducted for a sample of AERA members. Results indicated strong male-female differences on issues related to professional employment, such as reverse bias and the extent to which men are favored over women in work assignments. In contrast, large proportions of men and women supported statements on reduction in use of sex-specific references and the importance of sex-equity research. Women's responses were much more strongly intercorrelated than men's, probably indicating that women tend to view the issues of the survey as facets of a single underlying concern more so than men.
