Sex and Aggression: The Influence of Gender Label on the Perception of Aggression in Children.
Condry, John C.; Ross, David F.
Child Development, v56 n1 p225-33 Feb 1985
Uses a videotape of two preschool children to investigate the influence of gender labeling adults' perception of aggression in children. The degree of aggression displayed by the target child was judged by 175 college students (139 females, 36 males). Four conditions were created by varying the gender label of both the target and the nonrated child. (Author/AS)
