Toys and Gender Preference:


Gender preference was demonstrated in an observational study in which 20 young children,

boys and girls aged between 19 and 58 months old, were given free choice over the toys they

would play with. A box filled with various toys was presented to them giving them the option

to play with either “gender consistent” or “gender inconsistent” toys. Choices and results of

seconds played with each toy were then recorded in a table and a mean time of the dependent

variable was calculated. Time sampling was utilised to give accurate times of gender

consistent and inconsistent play. It was predicted that children will spend significantly more

time playing with gender-consistent toys than with gender-inconsistent toys. The results of

this study supported the hypothesis as children played considerably longer with gender

consistent toys across the board both boys and girls. Both the boys and the girls had a greater

mean time of playing with gender consistent toys than inconsistent toys. Hasset et al (2008)

found the same results when completing a similar study on rhesus monkeys instead of

children. The issue is raised when children believe they can’t or shouldn’t play with gender

inconsistent toys. The findings demonstrate that such preferences can develop without

explicit gendered socialization.
