Investigated gender bias in teachers' perceptions of the scientific ability of grade school students (Grades 2–6). 42 female elementary school teachers completed a Scientific Skills Inventory in which they listed the names of their students and identified what scientific skills each possessed. 515 males and 535 females were identified. 1,575 scientific skills were listed. 788 skills were listed for males and 787 for females. For analysis, skills were collapsed into 4 categories: no skills, social skills, cognitive process skills, and cognitive intellectual skills. Girls were perceived to be more cognitive process oriented than boys. However, boys were generally perceived to possess cognitive intellectual scientific skills to a greater degree than girls. Such perceptions may result in differential treatment of girls, contributing to a discrepancy in the development of scientific ability across gender.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
