本文以 300 对全职工作的双职工夫妇为样本，考察了工作角色质量与心理困扰之间的关联，控制了年龄、教育、职业声望和婚姻质量等个人层面变量，以及婚姻长度、父母状况和家庭收入等夫妻层面变量。比较了男性和女性的这种影响的程度。结果表明，工作角色质量与女性和男性的心理困扰均显着负相关，而且其影响程度几乎不依赖于性别，甚至完全依赖于性别，这对人们普遍持有的观点提出了质疑，即工作经历对男性心理健康状态的影响比女性更显着。结果是在区分性别差异和性别差异的背景下讨论的。
This article examines the association between job role quality and psychological distress in a sample of 300 full-time employed dual-earner couples, controlling for such individual level variables as age, education, occupational prestige, and marital quality and for such couple level variables as length of marriage, parental status, and household income. The magnitude of this effect is compared for men and for women. Results indicate that job role quality is significantly negatively associated with psychological distress for women as well as for men and that the magnitude of the effect depends little, if at all, on gender, casting doubt on the widely held view that job experiences more significantly influence men's mental health states than women's. The results are discussed in the context of differentiating between sex differences and gender differences.
