This illuminating book examines how children's attitudes towards gender stereotypes change as they age. Margaret L. Signorella enhances understanding of children's gender-stereotyped attitudes, particularly regarding when and how these attitudes develop.

Exploring trends across age and gender, Signorella goes beyond simply assessing stereotype flexibility to address sexism and judgments of gender norm violations. The book examines methods employed when asking children about stereotypes and thoughtfully considers the ethical ramifications of exposing them to these ideas in research. Incorporating recent insights from across the globe to highlight findings and omissions in reporting, Signorella presents crucial new avenues for future progress in gender development scholarship.

Rethinking Children's Gender-Related Attitudes is an essential read for developmental and social psychologists researching gender development and norm development more broadly. Through its comprehensive critical analysis and meta-analysis, this book will also benefit scholars and students of psychology interested in gender studies, women's studies, and children's studies.
