title: Sex-role orientation and satisfaction with life.
abstract: The hypothesis that androgynous people are more satisfied with life than others was tested by administering the Personal Attributes Questionnaire and the Satisfaction with Life Scale to 245 undergraduates (111 men and 134 women). Results strongly supported the tested hypothesis for men but not for women.
