Cyprus Children's Images of Scientists.
Hadjikyriacou, Ritsa Maria
Science Education International, v9 n3 p29-34 Sep 1998
Describes an attempt to determine if there were gender or age differences in the images that 11- to 14-year-old students have of scientists. Results indicate that as female students get older they adopt and project a more stereotypic image of scientists, whereas male students seem to harbor a less stereotypic image of scientists as they age.
