人们在人际关系中的态度一致性并不经常用调查数据来检验。本文通过对374名新近结婚和同居的人进行纵向和二元调查，考察了性别角色态度的变化。这篇论文检验了两个一般假设：(A)当伴侣最初更平等(传统)时，受访者会变得更平等(传统)；(B)当态度的关系相关性更大时，态度一致性会更强，这是指态度话题对关系内部运作的影响程度。这两种假设都得到了部分支持。分析表明，伴侣的态度对被调查者后来的态度有积极影响，同时控制了之前的被调查者的态度，证实了态度一致的概念。此外，当家庭条件使得传统的劳动分工变得更成问题时，性别角色态度的一致性就会变得更强。性别差异表明，丈夫更多地朝着妻子的方向改变，反之亦然。
Alignment of attitudes in personal relationships has not often been examined with survey data. This paper examines changes in sex-role attitudes using a longitudinal and dyadic survey among 374 recently married and cohabiting persons. The paper tests 2 general hypotheses: (a) respondents will become more egalitarian (traditional) when the partner is initially more egalitarian (traditional) and (b) attitude alignment will be stronger when the relational relevance of the attitude is greater, which is defined as the degree to which the attitude topic has consequences for the internal functioning of the relationship. Both hypotheses are partly supported. The analyses show positive effects of the partner's attitudes on later attitudes of the respondent while controlling for prior respondent attitudes, confirming the notion of attitude alignment. In addition, alignment in sex-role attitudes appears stronger when conditions in the household are such that a traditional division of labor becomes more problematic. Differences by gender suggest that husbands change more often in the direction of the wife than vice versa.
