On the basis of male and female sex stereotypes defined in a study of young adults, a children's picture-story technique known as the Sex Stereotype Measure was developed and administered to 284 Euro-American kindergartners and 2nd and 4th graders. Principal findings were (a) Kindergartners show an appreciable degree of knowledge of adult sex stereotypes.(b) This knowledge increases to the Grade 2 level but shows no further increase during the next 2 yrs.(c) Knowledge of sex stereotypes appears to develop in a similar manner among both boys and girls.(c) The male stereotype is learned at an earlier age than the female stereotype.(e) Expression of stereotypic responses sometimes is influenced by the sex of the examiner. It is concluded that this method represents a promising approach to the assessment of sex stereotypes in preschool and early school-age children.(18 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
