Effects of Sex-Fair Reading Materials on Pupils' Attitudes, Comprehension, and Interest.
Scott, Kathryn P.
American Educational Research Journal, v23 n1 p105-16 Spr 1986
This study was conducted to address gaps in the research on gender characteristics of reading materials. Pupils in grades 4, 7, and 11 read four narratives, one for each of four sex role conditions. Neither comprehension nor interest was diminished by the use of sex-fair materials. (Author/LMO)
