Eleven mothers interacted with one six-month-old male infant, dresses either as a male or female. Differences were found in overall maternal stimulation and toy handling as a function of perceived sex of the baby. Mothers interviewed reported that treatment of their own infants was not differentiated by sex. Results indicate that mothers behave according to their expectations rather than infant cues, although unaware of their stereotyping.
11位母亲与一名6个月大的男婴互动，该男婴穿着男婴或女婴的服装。研究发现，母亲的总体刺激行为和玩具处理方式因对婴儿性别的认知而有所不同。接受访谈的母亲报告称，她们对待自己婴儿的方式并无性别差异。结果表明，母亲们是按照自己的期望而非婴儿的暗示来行事的，尽管她们并未意识到自己的刻板印象。
