这项对144名青少年(年龄在第一阶段,年龄在9-11岁之间)的纵向研究检验了一种假设,即男孩和女孩在青春期早期的一年内会经历更多的“性别差异社会化”,并且这种模式在以下家庭中会更强烈:(A)父母保持传统的劳动分工,(B)有一个年轻的异性兄弟姐妹。对家庭社会化的3个方面(青少年参与“女性化”和“男性化”家务;青少年参与与父母的二元活动;父母监督)的纵向分析表明,性别强化在家庭社会化的某些方面是明显的,而在其他方面则不明显。此外,当性别强化明显时,它通常出现在一些家庭环境中,而不是在其他家庭环境中。只有双亲-青少年参与的特点是性别强化的总体模式,其中女孩越来越多地与母亲接触,男孩与父亲一起参与;在青少年有更年轻的异性兄弟姐妹的情况下,这种模式更加严重。
This longitudinal study of 144 young adolescents (ages 9-11 at phase 1) examined the hypothesis that boys and girls would experience increased ''gender-differential socialization'' across a 1-year period in early adolescence, and that such patterns would be stronger in families in which (a) parents maintained a traditional division of labor, and (b) there was a younger sibling of the opposite gender. Longitudinal analyses of 3 aspects of family socialization (adolescents' participation in ''feminine'' and ''masculine'' household chores; adolescents' involvement in dyadic activities with mothers and fathers; parental monitoring) revealed that gender intensification was apparent for some aspects of family socialization but not others. In addition, when gender intensification was apparent, it generally emerged in some family contexts but not in others. Only dyadic parent-adolescent involvement was characterized by an overall pattern of gender intensification in which girls became increasingly involved with their mothers and boys with their fathers; this pattern was exacerbated in contexts where adolescents had a younger, opposite-sex sibling.
