The present research was conducted to determine: (1) enduring negative psychological characteristics of male and female step-children toward the step-parent, and (2) a comparison of the similarities and/or differences of each. Results suggested ten of the most frequently stated variables of both subject groups, similarities or significant differences between them by subject status, and their relevancy to the step-child-step-parent relationship.
