The Development of Sex Difference in Young Children's Activities at Home: The Effect of the Social Context.

Bloch, Marianne N.

Sex Roles, v16 n5-6 p279-301 Mar 1987

Made spot observations of 83 infant to six-year-old children. Examined sex and age differences in children's typical play and nonplay activities and in the people with whom they interacted. There were fewer sex differences in children's activities, activity partners, and general social settings than expected. (Author/LHW)
