本文讨论幼儿的游戏伙伴的选择是否随着时间的推移是稳定的，以及这些选择如何影响行为。61名儿童（28名男孩和33名女孩;平均年龄= 53个月）被观察了6个月，并记录了游戏行为的类型和游戏伙伴的性别。儿童的伴侣偏好是高度性别分化和稳定的，随着时间的推移，特别是当更大的数据集合使用。确定了两种类型的后果：影响性别之间差异的二元效应和影响性别内变化的社会剂量效应。二元效应反映了一种模式，即女孩和男孩与同性伴侣一起玩的越多，他们的行为就越有性别差异。社会剂量效应反映了一种模式，即秋季同性游戏水平的变化对春季目标行为初始水平以上的变化有显著影响。
This article addresses whether young children's play-partner choices are stable over time and how these choices influence behavior. Sixty-one children (28 boys and 33 girls; mean age = 53 months) were observed over 6 months, and type of play behavior and sex of play partners were recorded. Children's partner preferences were highly sex differentiated and stable over time, especially when larger aggregates of data were used. Two types of consequences were identified: a binary effect that influenced differences between the sexes and a social dosage effect that influenced variations within the sexes. The binary effect reflected a pattern in which the more both girls and boys played with same-sex partners, the more their behavior became sex differentiated. The social dosage effect reflected a pattern in which variations in levels of same-sex play in the fall contributed significantly to variations in the spring above initial levels of the target behaviors.
