Modeling and Labeling as Integrated Determinants of Children's Sex-Typed Imitative Behavior.
Masters, John C.; And Others
Child Development, v50 n2 p364-71 Jun 1979
Investigates the manner in which preschool children use two sources of sex-appropriateness information (labeling and modeling) to direct their subsequent behavior and preferences for associated items. It is suggested that young children give lesser weights to the sex of a single model than to labels that may summarize general rules of conduct. (JMB)
