性别标签和游戏风格（男性或女性）在玩伴选择中的相对贡献在60名4至8岁的儿童中使用一种新颖的访谈方法进行评估。在访谈中，当目标的性别标签和目标的游戏风格作为独立的维度呈现时，儿童在性别标签和游戏风格（包括玩具、打闹游戏和活动水平）的偏好上表现出可预测的性别差异。然而，当目标的性别标签和目标的游戏风格作为竞争维度呈现时，所有年龄段的男孩都选择具有男性化游戏风格的女性目标，而不是具有女性化游戏风格的男性目标。相比之下，较小的女孩（4-5岁）会选择具有男性化游戏风格的女性目标，而较大的女孩（6-8岁）则会选择具有女性化游戏风格的男性目标。这表明，性别标签和游戏风格在儿童对同性玩伴的偏好发展中所起的作用可能存在性别差异。
The relative contribution of gender labels and play styles (masculine or feminine) in playmate selection was evaluated in 60 children between the ages of 4 and 8 years using a novel interview measure. In the interview, when targets' gender labels and targets' play styles were presented as independent dimensions, children showed predicted sex differences in preferences for gender labels and for play styles (including toys, rough-and-tumble play, and activity level). However, when targets' gender labels and targets' play styles were presented as competing dimensions, boys of all ages chose female targets with masculine play styles over male targets with feminine play styles. In contrast, younger girls (4-5-year-olds) chose female targets with masculine play styles, whereas older girls (6-8-year-olds) chose male targets with feminine play styles. This suggests possible sex differences in the contribution of gender labels and of play styles in the development of children's preferences for same-sexed playmates.
