Fagot, Beverly I.
Child Development, 49, 1, 30-6, Mar 78
Describes 2 studies in which experienced and inexperienced preschool teachers were observed during children's free play periods. It was suggested that inexperienced teachers tend to go along with children's play perferences, while experienced teachers direct the children into activities they consider more important to academic success (i. e., feminine behaviors).
