Gender Schemata: Individual Differences and Context Effects.
Signorella, Margaret L.
New Directions for Child Development, n38 p23-37 Win 1987
Supports the position that although individual differences have often been ignored, children do differ in the stereotyping of their gender identities and attitudes (gender schemata). Stresses that children with traditionally stereotyped gender schemata process information about gender differently from children who have less stereotyped schemata. (Author/RWB)
