Preschool Boys and Girls Use "No" Differently.

Nohara, Michiko

Journal of Child Language, v23 n2 p417-29 Jun 1996

Videotape recordings of interaction of 42 preschool children in same-sex dyads were coded and analyzed to see how these children used the word "no" in their interactions. Results showed that, although boys and girls used the word equally frequently, they were found to use it in different ways. (Author/JL)
