Gender and Development: Current Issues in Developmental Psychology

Editat de Patrick Leman, Harriet Tenenbaum
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 dec 2013
Children are born into a world infused with gendered information. An understanding of what it is to be a boy or girl can be critical in forming social relationships, social identities, and learning how to think and behave. Gender and Development is an important new volume that charts how children practice these gendered identities at different ages and in different social contexts
Taking a socio-cognitive approach, and integrating both theoretical and applied perspectives, the book looks at a range of contexts in which gender affects development and socialisation, from the child’s place in the family unit and their interaction with parents and siblings, to the influence of communication with peers over the internet. Throughout the chapters an age-old issue is addressed through a contemporary, empirically focused perspective – namely the nature and extent of equality between the genders, and how difficult it is for attitudes, perceptions and stereotypes to change. Key social issues are covered, including pro-social behaviour, career choice and academic competencies.
Gender and Development brings together some of the latest research in this important and enduring field of study. It is a timely and invaluable collection, and will be essential reading for all students and research in developmental psychology, social psychology and gender studies.

Recenzii

"This book serves a unique niche in providing an integrative assessment of recent research on gender and development. The editors are very well informed of the important topics and issues arising in the area of gender role development, and the coverage is impressive. It will appeal to a variety of social scientists, but principally to developmental, social, and clinical psychologists." - D.
