a4u9n_v1 | U.S. Children Expect and Approve of Adults’ Gender Stereotypes | Gender stereotypes, such as the idea that boys are more interested than girls in STEM, contribute to gender disparities in STEM. Do young children generally expect adults to hold such stereotypes, or do they withhold these assumptions without sufficient proof? Across four preregistered experiments (n = 574), we found evidence for the former: 5- to 7-year-old children in the United States predicted that teachers meeting their students for the first time would assign engineering activities to boys and reading activities to girls, despite children knowing that the students liked both equally. Further, children approved of teachers assigning engineering activities only to boys and reading activities only to girls, more so than the reverse. Despite ongoing efforts to challenge gender disparities in education, our results reveal that children enter school expecting teachers to hold gender stereotypes and view this as acceptable, highlighting a new early obstacle to educational equity. | 2025-05-08T17:46:46.135742 | 2025-05-08T18:08:05.373975 | 2025-05-08T18:07:36.911884 | psyarxiv | 1 | pending | 1 | 1 | https://doi.org/10.31234/osf.io/a4u9n_v1 | CC-By Attribution 4.0 International | [] | Mika Asaba; Marianna Zhang; Julia Leonard | [{"id": "y8792", "name": "Mika Asaba", "index": 0, "orcid": null, "bibliographic": true}, {"id": "npmzh", "name": "Marianna Zhang", "index": 1, "orcid": null, "bibliographic": true}, {"id": "4udg9", "name": "Julia Leonard", "index": 2, "orcid": null, "bibliographic": true}] | Mika Asaba | Social and Behavioral Sciences; Developmental Psychology | [{"id": "5b4e7425c6983001430b6c1e", "text": "Social and Behavioral Sciences"}, {"id": "5b4e7425c6983001430b6c2d", "text": "Developmental Psychology"}] | https://osf.io/download/681cee76a3978f5d5e159614 | 0 | available | available | ["https://osf.io/kr5sm/registrations"] | prereg_both | 2025-05-09T00:11:35.695737 |
