Male-Female Similarities in Class Participation.

Dillon, J. T.

Journal of Educational Research, v75 n6 p350-53 Jul-Aug 1982

Analysis of high school discussion classes revealed no "male dominance" in the rate of participation or weight of contribution. On all indices, males and females participated in proportion to their numbers in class. Differences in participation did not appear to be the result of sociocultural traits. (Author/PP)
