  • Masculine gender role stress and intimate abuse

    Richard M Eisler, Joseph J Franchina et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Men & Masculinity2000Cited by: 14References: 4

    This article proposes an approach to understanding men's abuse of their intimate partners. The authors suggest that the concept of masculine gender role stress (MGRS) might be useful in identifying men who are predisposed to become abusive with their intimate partners. College men who scored either high or low on an MGRS scale were assessed, and their attributions, affect, and conflict resolution behavior toward their intimate female partners wer…

  • Sex Differences in Cardiovascular Reactivity as a Function of the Appraised Gender Relevance of the Stressor

    Steven J Lash, Richard M Eisler et al.ARTICLEBehavioral Medicine1995

    Previous research suggests that sex differences in cardiovascular reactivity are a function of the gender relevance of the stressor. The authors examined the role of a stressor's gender relevance as a mediator of sex differences in cardiovascular reactivity. The cardiovascular reactivity of 121 male and female college students to the cold-pressor test was compared under feminine- and masculine-relevant stressor instructions. The women were expect…

  • The Relationship Between Feminine Gender Role Stress, Body Image, And Eating Disorders

    Open AccessDenise M Martz, Kevin B Handley et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Women Quarterly1995Cited by: 9References: 5

    The Feminine Gender Role Stress (FGRS) scale was used in two studies to determine whether eating disorders could be linked to the cognitive tendency among women to appraise specific situations as highly stressful because of rigid adherence to the traditional feminine gender role. Study 1 showed the FGRS scale could distinguish eating disorders from other psychiatric disorders in an inpatient setting and from normal college women. This suggests th…

  • Psychosocial and Physiological Correlates of Male Gender Role Stress among Employed Adults

    Patti Lou Watkins, Richard M Eisler et al.ARTICLEBehavioral Medicine1991

    Previous research has identified male gender role stress (MGRS) as a construct that leads men, as a function of traditional socialization processes, to appraise certain situations in ways that produce psychosocial and physiological distress. Because the initial research was based on college undergraduates, the current study explored the relationship of MGRS to psychosocial and physiological risk factors for cardiovascular disease among employed a…

  • Masculine Gender-Role Stress

    Richard M Eisler, Jay R Skidmore et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality Assessment1988

    We suggest that male gender-role identification affects whether specific situations are appraised as stressful. A questionnaire was developed to measure masculine gender-role stress (MGRS). Correlational data and multiple regression were used to validate the MGRS scale as a measure of gender-related stress in men, and compare its predictive utility with Spence's commonly-used measure of masculinity. Findings indicate that stress appraisal is gend…

  • Masculine Gender Role Stress

    Open AccessRichard M Eisler, Jay R SkidmoreARTICLEBehavior Modification1987

    It is proposed that masculine gender role socialization affects whether men appraise specific situations as stressful. Behavioral research on stress and coping has remained relatively blind to the possibility of significant gender role differences in appraising events as stressful. Therefore, a new scale was developed to measure masculine gender role stress (MGRS). Data were presented to substantiate hypotheses that MGRS scores (1) significantly …

  • Interactions Between Alcoholics and Their Wives

    Michel Hersen, Peter M Miller et al.ARTICLEQuarterly Journal of Studies on…1973

    Wives looked at their alcoholic husbands more when the discussion was related to drinking than when it was not, but the husbands tended to look more at their wives when the discussion was not related to drinking

  • Modification of Caloric Intake in Anorexia Nervosa

    Open AccessThomas E Elkin, Michel Hersen et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1973

    The effects of feedback, reinforcement, and increased food presentation on caloric intake were sequentially examined in an experimental single-case design with an anorexia nervosa patient. Although feedback on weight and a point-reinforcement system for weight gains led to increased consumption, augmenting the amount of food presented in combination with feedback and reinforcement resulted in the most dramatic change in caloric intake
