Fagot, Beverly I.; And Others
Child Development, v56 n6 p1499-1505 Dec 1985
Analyzed reactions 15 boys and 19 girls received from adults and peers when subjects attempted to communicate and physically assert control. At 14 months, children's behavior did not differ by sex, but caregivers differentiated responses by sex; at 24 months, children's behavior differed by sex, but caregivers did not differentiate their responses by sex.
