contents Flexibility of Gender Stereotypes: Italian Study on Comparative Gender-consistent and Gender-inconsistent Information Elisabetta Sagone Maria Elvira de Caroli Rossella Falanga Marinella Coco Valentina Perciavalle Psicología Children Flexibility Cartoon stories Gender stereotypes The topic of this study is flexibility in gender stereotyping linked to attribution of toys, socio-cognitive traits, and occupations in 160 Italian children aged 6 to 12 years. We used the Gender Toys Choice, the Gender Traits Choice, and the Gender Jobs Choice, a selected set of colored cards containing masculine and feminine stimuli to assign to a male or female or both male and female silhouette (the flexible-choice technique). In order to verify the change of flexibility in gender stereotyping, we made use of four cartoon stories with male and female characters with typical or atypical traits and performing gender-consistent or gender-inconsistent activities. Results indicated that the exposure to cartoon stories with gender-inconsistent information rather than cartoon stories with gender-consistent information increased flexibility in gender stereotyping, showing age differences in favor of children aged 11-12. Implications in relation to the developmental-constructivist approach were noted. 2018 artículo científico 1135-755X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=613769979006 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6137/613769979006/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6137/613769979006/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6137/613769979006/613769979006.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6137/613769979006/movil 10.5093/psed2018a14 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=6137 Psicología Educativa.
