MULTIDIMENSIONAL MODEL OF GENDER FEATURES OF ROLE BEHAVIOR IN FAMILY RELATIONS
We have conducted a discriminant analysis to distinguish between the influence of biological sex and gender identity on the peculiarities of family role behavior. Eighty couples (men and women) representing different types of partnerships have been examined. The couples, consisting of different types of partnerships have been examined: premarital relations, the actual (or civil) marriage, a young family, mature family. Such roles, as a claim on the visual appeal and the expectation of social activity of the partner, as well as focus on meeting the sexual needs of partners are determined primarily by biological sex and are more common for women than for men. Family roles associated with the organization of entertainment, education of children, the requirements of the partner in the household and the emotional and psychological sphere, activity in intimate sexual and socio-professional life are caused by social sex. The study of gender relations allows to present a comprehensive picture of the role behavior, as well as social and psychological position of men and women as the subjects of relations in different spheres of life, and especially in family relations.
