Which of the following statements is the best interpretation of the number 37.7 in the bottom left corner of Figure 6.2?
A team of researchers is interested to know whether sexual minorities (including, lesbian, gay, homosexual, and bisexual people) tend to view gendered family arrangements differently than heterosexual people. They create Figure 6.2, where FEFAM corresponds to the survey question, “Please tell me whether you strongly agree, agree, disagree, or strongly disagree with [the following] … It is much better for everyone involved if the man is the achiever outside the home and the woman takes care of the home and family.” SEXORNT is a variable corresponding to the survey question “Which of the following best describes you? Gay, lesbian or homosexual, bisexual, straight or heterosexual?” Note that SEXORNT was originally coded as 1 for those identifying as Gay, lesbian, or homosexual; 2 for those identifying as bisexual; and 3 for those identifying as heterosexual or straight, but has been recoded in 6.2.
