Postrzeganie kobiecości i męskości przez chłopców niedostosowanych społecznie

Summary/Abstract: Research group consisted of socially maladjusted boys, aged 13–18 yo, living in a student house of Youth Sociotherapy Centre. These boys have several life domains impaired which are evidence of the maladjustment. In the research we looked for the answers to many questions concerning feminity and masculinity, what were expected to confirm or deny hypothesis posed in the study. For the methods we selected: questionaire consisting of 27 questions, Rotter's sentence completion tests and two pictures – of a woman and a man. Results have denied the thesis that „The woman is less important in the relationship”. Based on the majority of the results, the woman is more or equally important in the relationship. Hypothesis: „Mother is the most important, and the most positive person” and „Man must be manly” were confirmed. Hypothesis „For women, the physical appearance is the most important” was partially confirmed. Some boys pointed out only physical appearance, but the big part claimed both looks and personality to be important. The study has shown that life and family status impacts perception of feminity and masculanity. The common beliefs regarding maladjusted youths should not be, however, generalized: those that they have incorrect picture of reality.
