This paper presents a scoring procedure for sex-role orientation that is based on indices of profile similarity reflecting how similar an individual is to androgynous, undifferentiated, masculine, and feminine sex-role types. Data is presented to show that the profile scores are reasonably reliable and consistent with a widely used typological scoring procedure in how sex-role types are defined. Because it yields continuous scores, the profile scoring procedure permits finer comparisons between individuals with different sex-role orientations and may therefore be useful in research in this area.EDUCATIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL MEASUREMENT 1981, 41 ' CURRENT research on psychological androgyny treats individual differences in sex-role orientation essentially as group differences between broadly defined types. The typology proposed by Spence, Helmreich, and Stapp (1975), for example classifies people as members of one of these four mutually exclusive groups: masculine sextyped, feminine sex-typed, androgynous, or undifferentiated. As Kelly and Worell (1977) have pointed out, however, typologies such as this permit only rather coarse comparisons between persons with different sex-role orientations. Finer comparisons would be possible with scoring procedures that yield continuous scores representing degree of different kinds of sex-role orientation instead of indices like those currently in use that represent only membership in one or another sex-role group.
