Abstract | Two studies examined 6- to 11-year-olds' gender-related interpretations of occupational titles. Findings indicated that children were sensitive to linguistic forms of job titles, and that these sensitivities differed in relation to participant variables such as attitude. Gender-specific interpretations occurred more frequently for marked occupational titles--those with strong suffixes and feminine suffixes, even when the markers were not indicative of gender. (JPB) |
