Picture This: Sex Equity in Textbook Illustrations.

Koza, Julia Eklund

Music Educators Journal, v78 n7 p28-33 Mar 1992

Reports the results of research concerning the portrayal of the sexes in music textbooks. Suggests that such portrayals may reinforce women's underrepresentation in music education. Reports that men in the illustrations were more likely than women to be identified and presented in formal portraits. Discusses the stereotypical association of the sexes with certain instruments.
