About Me:

I am a student currently studying at a university and considering a minor within Women's and Gender Studies.

I think my interest in Women's and Gender Studies might be focused on gender pronouns and teaching gender to children.

Three articles I am interested to edit are "Gender roles in young children," "Singular they," and "Gender identity"

Resources

Title: Parents’ Gender Ideology and Gendered Behavior as Predictors of Children’s Gender-Role Attitudes: A Longitudinal Exploration

Title: Gender Differences in Teen Parents' Perceptions of Parental Responsibilities.

Title: Early Childhood Educators’ Reflections on Teaching Practices: the role of gender and culture.

Title: The Development of Sex/Gender-specific /s/ and its relationship to Gender Identity in Children in adolescents.

I believe these four resources are of high quality and can be helpful when contributing to the article Gender identity. The main resource I plan on using is the first: Parents' Gender Ideology and Gendered Behavior as Predictors of Children's Gender-Role Attitudes: A Longitudinal Exploration.

Total List of Resources with Annotations

• Title: Parents’ Gender Ideology and Gendered Behavior as Predictors of Children’s Gender-Role Attitudes: A Longitudinal Exploration (citation: Halpern, Hillary Paul, and Maureen Perry-Jenkins. “Parents’ Gender Ideology and Gendered Behavior as Predictors of Children’s Gender-Role Attitudes: A Longitudinal Exploration.” Sex Roles, vol. 74, no. 11-12, Sept. 2015, pp. 527–542. doi:10.1007/s11199-015-0539-0.) Annotation: So far, this article has been my main source of information in my contributions for Wikipedia. Regarding my topic of the parental influence of a child’s gender identity, this article is exactly what I need. I believe it will also be a huge source of information with my research paper—which I plan to also focus on the influences of a child’s gender identity.
• Title: Gender Differences in Teen Parents' Perceptions of Parental Responsibilities. (citation: Dallas, Constance et al. “Gender Differences in Teen Parents' Perceptions of Parental Responsibilities.” Public Health Nursing Public Health Nurs, vol. 17, no. 6, 2000, pp. 423–433. doi:10.1046/j.1525-1446.2000.00423.x.) Annotation: While this article does not address the topic of a child’s gender identity exactly, I still believe it will be helpful in my research paper due to the fact that it deals primarily with the development of a child and the influence teenage parents have on their children. Gender is discussed in this article primarily through how each parent (the mother and father) influence the development of the child.
• Title: Early Childhood Educators’ Reflections on Teaching Practices: the role of gender and culture. (citation: Dewar, Brandy A. et al. “Early Childhood Educators’ Reflections on Teaching Practices: the Role of Gender and Culture.” Reflective Practice, vol. 14, no. 3, 2013, pp. 381–391. doi:10.1080/14623943.2013.767234.) Annotation: This article deals primarily with how the adults in children’s lives (parents, educators, etc.) perceive the child’s gender identity as well as the reflections of their own ideology on gender outside of the child’s life. I’d like to provide a contrast from child gender identity with adult identity to observe any similarities or differences between the two.

• Title: The Development of Sex/Gender-specific /s/ and its relationship to Gender Identity in Children in adolescents. (citation: Li, Fangfang et al. “The Development of Sex/Gender-Specific /s/ and Its Relationship to Gender Identity in Children and Adolescents.” Journal of Phonetics, vol. 57, 2016, pp. 59–70. doi:10.1016/j.wocn.2016.05.004.) Annotation: This article discusses how the speech of children might be influenced by their own gender identities. This article will be helpful in my research paper in the sense of helping to prove how one’s gender identity has influence of one’s life in such unexpected way, such as speech or behavior. This article may also be useful in defining what other aspects in a child’s life have influence over gender identity.

• Title: Children's Gender Identity Development: The Dynamic Negotation Process Between Conformity And Authenticity.(citation: Brinkman, Britney G, et al. "Children’S Gender Identity Development: The Dynamic Negotiation Process Between Conformity And Authenticity." Youth & Society 46.6 (2014): 835-852. Academic Search Complete. Web. 20 Oct. 2016.) Annotation:This article, I believe, will be particularly helpful due to the fact that it incorporates the children’s idea of gender and thoughts of how gender should be portrayed. The study that was conducted should be useful in my paper because it uses societal influences and norms to reveal the gender identities of the children.

• Title: Sex Or Gender Identity? Understanding Children's Reading Choices And Motivation. (citation: McGeown, Sarah P. "Sex Or Gender Identity? Understanding Children's Reading Choices And Motivation." Journal Of Research In Reading 38.1 (2015): 35-46. Academic Search Complete. Web. 20 Oct. 2016.) Annotation: This article uses a study to examine the extent of the ability to predict a child’s reading choices through their acclaimed gender identity. Within my paper, I believe this article will be useful because it brings into question the difference between sex and gender along with providing another way a child’s gender identity can influence different aspects of the child’s life.
• Title: The Development Of Gender Identity, Gender Roles, And Gender Relations In Gifted Students. (citation: Kerr, Barbara A., and Karen D. Multon. "The Development Of Gender Identity, Gender Roles, And Gender Relations In Gifted Students." Journal Of Counseling & Development 93.2 (2015): 183-191. Academic Search Complete. Web. 20 Oct. 2016.) Annotation: This article uses a study to examine the possible relationships between children’s intellectual or talent giftedness with gender identity, possible challenges these relationships may cause to the children, and a way to overcome these obstacles. I plan to use this information, especially the solution, to show how the issue of gender identity within children doesn’t actually have to be an issue at all.
• Title: Young Children's Inductive Generalizations About Social Categories: When Is Gender Essential? (citation: Pillow, Bradford H., RaeAnne M. Pearson, and Cara Allen. "Young Children's Inductive Generalizations About Social Categories: When Is Gender Essential?." Merrill-Palmer Quarterly 61.4 (2015): 441-467. Academic Search Complete. Web. 20 Oct. 2016.) Annotation: This study observed how and when children use gendered stereotypes to make assumptions about another person. This study, I believe, will be particularly useful in my paper when used with the first article because it reveals the extent that different aspects in the lives of children can influence the way they see and judge others by gender identity, appearance, and social status.
