Sex-Role Stereotyping in Preschool Children's Picture Books

Kolbe, Richard, Voie, Joseph C. La·1981·Social Psychology Quarterly

Abstract

Changes in female sex-role stereotyping since the Weitzman et al. (1972) review of the Caldecott children's book selections are assessed in this study. The 19 Caldecott medal and honor book selections from 1972 to 1979 are examined for the presence of sexism in terms of ratio offemale to male pictures and ch'aracters in the book, sex of the main character, inclusion of females in the book, and sex-role portrayal and characterization. The analyses show that while the ratio of female pictures and characters had improved considerably since 1972, role portrayal and characterization had not changed. These results are discussed in terms of the impact of symbolic modeling and the resistance of cultural values to the introduction of egalitarian sex roles.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
