“…In the present study, the coefficient alphas were .87, .92, and .91 for Time 1, Time 2, and Time 3 respectively. Many researchers who studied the factor structure of the GRCS (e.g., Good, Robertson, O'Neil, Fitzgerald, Stevens, & DeBord, 1995;Moradi et al, 2000) have found a similar factor structure to that found in O'Neil and his colleagues' original study (O'Neil et al, 1986). O'Neil et al (1995) reviewed 35 studies that provided abundant evidence for the construct validity of the RES: restrictive emotionality was found to be associated with psychological and interpersonal problems, e.g., low self-esteem, difficulties with relationship intimacy, marital dissatisfaction, anxiety, depression, and a negative view of help-seeking.…”

“…Respondents are asked to report the extent to which they agree or disagree with statements using a 6-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 6 (strong agree) with higher scores reflecting higher levels of restrictive emotionality. Previous samples have yielded an average coefficient alpha of .84 across 11 studies and a 4-week test-retest reliability of .76 (O'Neil et al, 1986). In the present study, the coefficient alphas were .87, .92, and .91 for Time 1, Time 2, and Time 3 respectively.…”

“…O'Neil and his colleagues have operationalized gender role conflict theory by developing the Gender Role Conflict Scale (GRCS; O'Neil, et al, 1986). The GRCS support for the reliability as well as construct and factorial validity of the GRCS (for reviews, see Moradi, Tokar, Schaub, Jome, &Serna, 2000, andO'Neil et al, 1995).…”

“…The 10-item RES (O'Neil et al, 1986; Appendix C) is one of four subscales of the Gender Role Conflict Scale (GRCS; O'Neil et al, 1986). The RES is used to assess men's difficulties and fears about expressing feelings and difficulty finding words to express basic emotions .…”

The current study examined the potential psychosocial benefits of writing about one’s ideal emotional connectedness with a romantic partner for male college students with varying levels of restrictive emotionality. One hundred fifty-eight male college students were randomly assigned to either an experimental or a control writing condition. Experimental participants wrote for 20 minutes each day for 3 days about how their lives would be different if they had the best possible emotional connectedness with a romantic partner, whereas controls wrote about impersonal topics. Four weeks after the writing intervention, experimental participants reported a significantly greater decrease in psychological distress as contrasted with controls. A multiple regression analysis further revealed that men’s restrictive emotionality was negatively associated with being in a romantic relationship and with positive relations with others.

This is the first study to examine the relations between components of masculine gender role conflict and specific symptoms of psychological distress in a sample of men seeking counseling services. One hundred and thirty male clients from 2 university counseling centers completed the Gender Role Conflict Scale and the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised. Participants reported moderate to high levels of psychological symptoms, which were correlated with components of masculine role conflict. Results of simultaneous multiple regressions supported previous findings in nonclinical samples of relations between masculine role conflict and depression and interpersonal issues. In addition, masculine role conflict significantly predicted paranoia, psychoticism, and obsessive compulsivity. Implications for counseling and future research are discussed.
