In this chapter, we summarize and integrate some of the latest developmental science research on gender stereotypes and discrimination in childhood and adolescence. We focus on five forms of sexism: (a) stereotypes and discrimination against boys regarding their school behaviors and disciplinary actions; (b) stereotypes and discrimination against girls in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) domains; (c) stereotypes and discrimination in sports; (d) peer gendered harassment, including sexual harassment and teasing because of gender atypicality or nonconformity; and (e) sexualized gender stereotypes that sexually objectify girls and assume boys are sexually voracious. First, we document each type of sexism and examine children's awareness and perceptions of that bias, including their own self-reports and attributions. We examine the implications of this sexism for children and adolescents' developmental health (i.e., social, academic, and psychological well-being). We then draw connections between these various areas of research, focusing on how these different forms of sexism interact to reduce equity and justice among children and negatively impact positive developmental outcomes. The chapter concludes with suggestions for future research.
在这一章中,我们总结和整合了一些关于儿童和青少年性别刻板印象和歧视的最新发展科学研究。我们关注五种形式的性别歧视:(a)针对男孩在学校行为和纪律处分方面的刻板印象和歧视;(b)在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)领域对女孩的刻板印象和歧视;(c)在体育运动中的刻板印象和歧视;(d)同伴性别骚扰,包括因性别非典型或不合规而进行的性骚扰和嘲笑;以及(e)将女孩性化并假设男孩性欲旺盛的性别刻板印象。首先,我们记录了每种形式的性别歧视,并研究了儿童对这种偏见的意识和看法,包括他们自己的自我报告和归因。我们研究了这种性别歧视对儿童和青少年发展健康(即社会、学业和心理健康)的影响。然后,我们在这些不同的研究领域之间建立联系,重点关注这些不同形式的性别歧视如何相互作用,减少儿童之间的公平和正义,并对积极的发展结果产生负面影响。最后,章节结尾提出了未来研究的建议。
