A Family Study of Gender Identification

Munsinger, Harry; Rabin, Adele

Child Development, 49, 2, 537-9, Jun 78

Self-reports about 70 masculine and feminine behaviors were collected from 177 undergraduates and their families and were correlated within family pairs to assess family resemblances in masculine or feminine preferences. The obtained family correlations were compared with those predicted by three theoretical models of gender-identity acquisition. (Author/JMB)
