Abstract

|
Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate local characteristics of the distribution of sex-role identity types and the factors affecting a vulnerable type to fear of success and risk of depression among female students attending at a university in Jeju.
Methods : Data from 74 participants were collected by self-reported questionnaires and analyzed by ANOVA and Scheffe's post-hoc test, and a multivariate logistic regression.
Results : The most prevalent sex-role identity type was undifferentiated (28.4%), accompanied by femininity (28.4%) equally. Androgyny was the least prevalent (18.9%). The undifferentiated as well as femininity type showed a higher level of fear of success than the masculinity and the androgyny types did (F=5.41, p=0.002). Although the degree of risk of depression was increasing, starting from androgyny to masculinity, femininity and undifferentiated type in the order named, no significant difference was found among them (F=1.57, p=0.204). The factors affecting the undifferentiated type were having male sibling (Odds ratio 9.56 ; Confidence Interval 1.40-65.39 ; p=0.021), level of body image satisfaction (2.54 ; 1.09-5.93 ; p=0.032) and level of academic achievement (2.54 ; 1.01-6.40 ; p=0.048).
Conclusion : The Jeju's most prevalent and vulnerable type of sex-role identity is undifferentiated type among female students. This calls for an intervention concerning the affecting factors.
