Gender Differences in Altruistic Reputation: Are They Artifactual?
Zarbatany, Lynne; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v21 n1 p97-101 Jan 1985
Tested notion that observed sex differences in children's altruistic reputations that favor girls are due to sex-biased items found in peer-assessment measures. Gender-fair assessment of altruistic reputation was attempted through the use of empirically derived examples of masculine, feminine, and gender-neutral prosocial behaviors. (Author/DST)
