Sex Differences in Responsiveness to Infants: A Developmental Study of Psychophysiological and Behavioral Responses.
Frodi, Ann M.; Lamb, Michael E.
Child Development, v49 n4 p1182-88 Dec 1978
Sex differences in responsiveness to infants were investigated by comparing the physiological responses of boys and girls in middle childhood and early adolescence with their overt behavioral reactions which were presumed to be more affected by societal norms. Results showed no sex differences on the psychophysiological measures but did reveal sex differences in the overt behaviors. (JMB)
