Allgood-Merten, Betty; Stockard, Jean
Sex Roles: A Journal of Research, v25 n3-4 p129-39 Aug 1991
Associations of self-reported self-efficacy (masculinity) and relationality (femininity) are studied for 799 high school students (412 females and 387 males) and 607 fourth graders (300 females and 307 males), 52 of whom are studied again in grade 12. As children move into adolescence, relationality is no longer associated with self-esteem. (SLD)
