Abstract: | This study uses moderated regression analysis and two major sources of individual data to examine gender differences in union
membership, pro-union voting intent, union instrumentality, and relative confidence in union leaders. Some specific male-female
differences are noted, particularly involving union-related variables. Overall, however, the authors report a minimal role
for gender as a determinant of the alternative union-related measures examined.
