Biology, Society, and Behavior
Author: Ann V. McGillicuddy-De Lisi
Publisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Applying current theory and research, this book links the development of sex differences in cognition to biological foundations, multiple social processes, and contextual factors. Areas covered include evolutionary biology, neuroscience, social roles, and cultural contextualism and the issues of the onset, causes, developmental trajectories, and patterns in children's and adolescents' thinking, problem-solving, academic performance, and social conditions that are related to behaviors in each of these areas. An edited volume with chapters by leading scholars, this book is meant for use by graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in the fields of developmental cognitive and psychology, learning and socialization, biology, and education. Cognitive domains addressed include language and verbal abilities, mathematical and quantitative abilities, spatial abilities, and social cognition.

Sex Differences in Social Behavior
Author: Alice H. Eagly
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 113493114X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
In presenting an innovative theory of sex differences in the social context, this volume applies social-role theory and meta-analytic techniques to research in aggression, social influence, helping, nonverbal, and group behavior. Eagly's findings show that gender stereotypic behavior results from different male and female role expectations, and that the disparity between these gender stereotypes and actual sex differences is not as great as is often believed.

The Effects of Dominance Rank and Sex on Preschool Children's Proxemic Behavior

Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
An eight week field study, utilizing naturalistic methods of observation, was conducted in a St. John's Day care centre to ascertain the effects of rank in the dominance hierarchy and sex on preschool children's proxemic behavior on both the microspatial and macrospatial behavioral levels. -- A dominance based on the outcome of dyadic physical and verbal agonistic encounters was constructed for each sex. It was found that males were easier to rank and had more stable hierarchies, and that they also were more involved in dominance behaviors than girls. Boys were also found to be generally dominant over girls. -- In order to test the usefulness of dominance rank and sex as intervening variables, a number of hypotheses concerning preschool children's proxemic behavior were derived from studies on nonhuman primates and human adults and tested on a group of preschool children. Dominance rank difference, with dominants being more direct than subordinates, were found to be significant for tactile contact and voice loudness in both sexes, and for eye contact in girls. Sex differences were found in eye contact and body orientation, with males being more direct and involved in both cases. On the macrospatial level, there were rank differences in jurisdictional behavior and areas avoided for girls, with dominants showing more jurisdiction and fewer avoided areas, but there were no rank differences on any measures for boys. No sex differences were found in the preschool children's macrospatial proxemic behavior. -- It was concluded that both sex and dominance rank are useful as intervening variables in the prediction of preschool children's proxemic behavior.
