While political behavioral differences between men and women appear to have been exaggerated, some continue to be validly observed. Evidence from several diciplines suggests that such differences may be biological in origin, mediated through the endocrine system. Variance in concentrations of certain hormones may have behavioral consequences. Since an experimental test in which these concentrations would be directly manipulated is not feasible, a design was developed which relies on the naturally-occurring hormonal variance of the female menstrual cycle. Subjects responded to a survey instrument and also supplied physiological data including, for women, location in the menstrual sysle. Hylpothesized differences in the reponses of women experiencing diverse concentrations of key endocrines failed to appear
