Project Summary Categorization is a fundamental aspect of human cognition that allows for efficient learning, generalization, and communication. Throughout development, humans categorize the objects, people, and events around them. The proposed work examines social categorization with a focus on gender. Gender categories are early emerging, yet influential throughout the lifespan. Broader societal ideas about gender appear to be changing, however, and this grant asks how those changes may or may not be reflected in how adolescents are categorizing gender, their beliefs about gender, and their self-categorization by gender. Using a pair of longitudinal studies, including a 5-year annual study (ongoing from the previous grant period) and a month-long daily experience sampling study, this grant will document how these constructs are or are not changing amongst adolescents and the relation between these constructs and their social environments. Finally, in this work, we examine the links between adolescents’ beliefs about gender, self-categorization with gender, and their health and well-being. Participants include adolescents and adults who are gender diverse and cisgender. Together this work will advance theory and practice about topics ranging from categorization and adolescent gender development to reducing mental health disparities in transgender youth.

项目摘要 分类是人类认知的一个基本方面，它允许有效的学习、概括和 沟通。在整个发展过程中，人类对他们周围的物体、人和事件进行分类。 拟议的工作审查了社会分类，重点是性别。性别分类为时尚早 初露头角，但在整个生命周期中都具有影响力。关于性别的更广泛的社会观念似乎正在发生变化， 然而，这笔赠款询问这些变化如何在青少年的表现中得到反映 对性别进行分类，他们对性别的信念，以及他们按性别进行的自我分类。使用一双 纵向研究，包括为期5年的年度研究(从上一次赠款期间开始)和为期一个月的研究 每日体验抽样研究，这项拨款将记录这些结构是如何改变的 以及这些结构与他们的社会环境之间的关系。最后，在这个 工作中，我们考察了青少年对性别的信念、自我归类与性别之间的联系，以及 他们的健康和幸福。参与者包括不同性别和顺性别的青少年和成年人。 这项工作将共同推进从分类到青少年等主题的理论和实践 性别发展对减少变性人青年心理健康差距的作用。
