Abstract

Determined efforts by women to bring about soical, economic, legal and other changes have met with definite though limited success, but also brought increased violence toward women. Wives and mothers with careers still carry the major burdens of household, child care, and social responsibilities, stress causing slippage into more gender-stereotyped roles. Highly achieving and successful women appear to have a greater sense of independence and determination that career success is more important than any other aspect of life.
