Note that each of the 60 ratings above has an (M) indicating Masculinity, (F) indicating Femininity or an (N) beside them. Add up all of the (M) ratings and divide by 20; that is the is Freddie’s Average Masculinity Score. Do the same for all of his (F) ratings, summarizing them and dividing by 20 to get his Average Femininity Score. (Ignore the (N) ratings). Average Masculinity (M) Score: ___5.55____ Average Femininity (F) Score: ___4.2_____ Step 3 . If Freddie’s Masculinity (M) Score is higher than his Femininity (F) score, then he would be classified as a Masculine Sex Role Type.

If BOTH his (M) and (F) scores are 5.0 or higher, then he would be classified as an Androgynous Sex Role Type.
