The 32-item Femininity scale of the California Psychological Inventory was empirically divided into two independent subscales: the Femininity (consisting of items more frequently endorsed by women) and the Masculinity subscales (consisting of items more frequently endorsed by men). Well-being is assessed by absence of depressive symptomatology and level of self-actualization. For women, lower levels of femininity significantly predicted to decrease in depressive levels and higher actualization. For men, low femininity and moderately high masculinity scores predicted to low depressive symptomatology, while low femininity and low masculinity levels predicted to high actualization. The findings were discussed in the context of modern day Taiwan culture.
