A
board games/sports, rules!
15
Q
difference in thinking with men and women
A
men - unilateral (speed up time to think, but slower damage recovery)
women - bilateral (slow down time processing but easier damage recovery)
16
Q
primordial glands
A
medulla (inside) - potential for testes
cortex (outside) - potential for ovary (default)
17
Q
sex genes on chromosomes
A
SRY on Y chromosome, if present kicks off medulla
DSS on X chromosome, if present kicks off cortex
apparent around 7-8 weeks in pregnancy
18
Q
wolffian duct system
A
male tract
19
Q
mullerian duct system
A
female tract
20
Q
congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH)
A
affects adrenal glands
usually assigned female at birth/easier for surgeons to reassign these people as female in surgery
personality differences (gender atypical behavior, girls more aggressive, less interested in infants)
21
Q
spatial ability in CAH
A
women with CAH did better in spatial abilities, defying the usual gender difference
increase in androgen=better score on mental rotation (better in spatial)
increase in testosterone=better lateralization (better in time)
22
Q
what is recommended with surgery and intersex people?
A
if there is no pain, wait and let them decide about surgery later in life/when they can give consent
23
Q
Androgen insensitivity syndrome
A
recessive, feminine/construct as girls
doesn’t present in XX, need XY
immune to affects to androgens, have testes AND mullerian duct
don’t menstruate, find out at puberty
surgically remove testes (can cause cancer)
used to show biology doesn’t impact thought
24
Q
5-alpha reductase
A
rare! less that 60 cases all from DR
challenged Money’s idea (reimer case)
raised as girls w/ XY, clit –> testes @ puberty, transition to boy
DR culture isn’t binary, 3 sexes (boy, girl, girl –> boy)
25
turners syndrome
45 chromosomes in most dna
most result in still birth, others considered "genetic mosaics"
1:2500 girls, most common
not identified usually, female genitals and gonads
result: heart, kidney, thyroid problems
bad spatial abilities
26
klinefelter's syndrome
extra chromosome, XXY
1:1000 male births, issues w/ language development around age 2-3
diagnosed with reading disabilities
27
gender identity
who you are
28
another term for gender identity disorder
gender dysphoria (sex doesn't = gender)
29
gender role
attitudes, behaviors and beliefs that culture deems appropriate for each sex/gender (ex. toys, career, shaving)
male = more rigid (better to have a tom boy daughter than fem son)
30
gender role stereotypes
gender roles applied rigidly, "this is how it has to be"
31
4 theories of gender typing
psychoanalytic
social learning theory
cognitive development
gender schema
32
psychoanalytic gender typing
freud
- phallic stage: super ego, sexual orientation, and
gender identity emerge
interaction w/ parents thought to be crucial, once constructed couldn't change
oedipal conflict
- son is sexually attracted to mother, father would
find out and castrate him
electra conflict
- daughter is sent into world ill equipped, penis envy
33
social learning theory gender typing
parents have role but not main one, classical and operant conditioning
**reinforcement** - parents, teachers, etc. reinforce behavior w/ gender roles, subtle and blatantly
**modeling** - kids learn by imitation
- symbolic modeling - imitation through media (tv,
internet, etc.)
34
cognitive development gender typing
kohlberg (thought kids won't behave in gender ways until their own gender is established, proven wrong!)
**3 stages:**
gender identity - construct identity @ 2
gender stability - understand being boy/girl is stable, 2-4, themselves first and others later
gender constancy - 5-7, once realized, become rigid in gender roles (if brought up neutrally this isn't established)
35
gender schema gender typing
combines social learning and cognitive development
children learn through imitation, reinforcement, punishment, but use this info to construct gender schema (**what is appropriate for each gender**)
36
dittmar et al (2006)
appearance based, barbie has interesting proportions
did a study with plus-size doll vs. barbie vs. control (no doll) in 5-8 yr old girls
barbie: drive for thinness
plus size/control: less drive
more impactful for younger girls

induction
an adult helps make the child aware of feelings by pointing out the effects of the child's misbehavior on others
43
warmth and responsiveness model characteristics
children are more likely to copy actions of warm, responsive adults
44
competence and power model characteristics
children admire and therefore tend to imitate competent, powerful models
45

when models say one thing and actually do as they say, the child is more inclined to replicate this
46

why did african americans select significantly heavier ideal body sizes than white people?
more black role models w/ healthier bodies/less emphasis on skinny = pretty
68
fluid intelligence

goal: identify kids who would have trouble in school compared to age mates (age appropriate tests)
cons: given # to IQ, administered by professional/psychologist
71
weschsler intelligence scale for children III (WISC-III)
culturally driven and mostly represent white middle class, used in military and schools
cons: given # to IQ, administered by professional/psychologist
72
biology is destiny is believed by who?
herrnstein and murray
jensen
73
herrnstein and murray
believed people in power (politicians, etc.) arrived on top of bell curve of intelligence and people w/ social support on bottom
thought to be biological difference, selectively picked data that backed up their ideas
74
jensen
noted IQ different between black and white kids
one of only studies to credit biology, not social
politicians chose to believe him in order to cut programs like head start meant to help these kids
75
cultivation effect
adults who consume lots of news think world is scary place, same goes for kids watching violent things!
76
environment plays a large role is believed by who
scarr+weinberg
shirly brice heath
McKonan+weinstein
77
scarr and weinberg (1983)
transracial adoption (black kids in white families)
these kids had higher IQ than usual black children
78
shirly brice heath (1989)
parents reading to kids (white and black)
white: parents read to kids like IQ test "how many balloons are there on the page?"
black: parents read to kids relating to real life "balloons, like the ones at your birthday party!"
neither wrong!
79
stereotype threat/mckonan and weinstein (2003)
**assessed how a strong stereotype was believed/how it would impact result**
gave latino, white and black kids IQ test, told half it was a test
black and latino with strong stereotype did worse than white when told it was a test
**if stereotype is believed, will affect your testing**
80
sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence

81
three subtheories of sternberg
componential
experiential
contextual
82
componential subtheory
info processing/analytic
metacognition (decider)
strategy application
knowledge acquisition (what do we need to do to solve problem)
83
experiential subtheory
creative
novelty of task (doing something w/o ever dealing with it before)
automatization of skills (stroop test=reading has become automatic)
84
contextual subtheory
practical
**a**dapting- changing things in yourself
**s**haping- changing the environment
**s**electing- selecting new environment

94
divergent thinking
multiple answers to a problem (schools do not do this enough)
95
convergent thinking
one right answer to a problem
ex. 2+2=4
96
mastery oriented attributions
assessed with effort and love of learning/learning for learnings sake
when they do not do well=what can they do to succeed
97
performance oriented attributions
schools promote this! very common in our culture
rewards for grades=performance oriented
showing effort is **not** important
learned helplessness
98
learned helplessness
if you seem to always fail, you stop trying
worry: focus on outcome not effort
