Kourilsky, Marilyn; Campbell, Michael
Sex Roles: A Journal of Research, v10 n1-2 p53-66 Jan 1984
Conducted "Mini-Society," an experience-based economics instructional program with 938 children in grades three through six. Measured participants' perceptions of entrepreneurship, occupational stereotyping, and sex differences in risk-taking, persistence, and economic success. During the program, no sex differences occurred in the latter three areas, and sex, occupational, and entrepreneurial stereotyping decreased after it. (Author/ML)
