Possible gender-related evaluative biases were investigated among a group of 64 second and third graders (ages dy 11m to 9y 7m). Participants were shown photographs of 8 unfamiliar children, and were told that each had performed a particular behavior: Each of the behaviors was consistent with multiple interpretations including a positive interpretation and a negative interpretation. When the unfamiliar peers were male, participants were move likely to remember behaviors in unfavorable ways and to select more negative attributions for the behavior This pattern of results held even among male participants, who reported greater expectations of liking the male peers.
