Gender Schema Theory 0.0 / 5 ? PsychologyGenderA2/A-levelAQA Created by: Keyleigh-StormCreated on: 05-06-16 14:22 467923110 Across 1. Who came up with gender schema theory? (6, 3, 9) 2. The process of aquiring gender-relevant info happens ------ gender constancy is achievedd - basic gender labelling is sufficient to identify as either boy/girl & take an interest in appropriate behaviours. (6) 6. A ----- is a mental representation of an aspect of the world - it's a cluster of related items that together represent a concept. (6) 9. IDA - gender schema leads to misremembering/distorting info which has important implications for efforts to ------ gender stereotypes - even when exposed to counter-stereotypes they don't remember them accurately so this method may not be the best. (6) 10. Who told 4-9 year olds that gender neutral items were either boy or girl items? Participants took a greater interest items labelled as ingroup & 1 week later they were able to recall more details about ingroup objects =gender schema related to memory (8, 2, 2) Down 2. The acquisition of stereotypes/schema affects later ---------, especially in terms of memory & attention. (9) 3. Aside from just not remembering inconsistent info, gender schema may also lead children to actually ------- this kind of info. (7) 4. Children learn schemas related to gender from their ------------ with other children & adults, as well as from TV or videos. (12) 6. Who've proposed a way to unify GST & GCT? They represent different processes. CST = organisation of info so should affect cognitive variables (memory). GCT = motivation (want to find out about roles) so should be associated with activity choice. (7, 3, 5) 7. Gender beliefs lead children to hold very ----- gender attitudes because they ignore any info they encounter that's not consistent with ingroup info (e.g. if a boy sees a male nurse he ignores it as it's not in line with his ingroups schema).
