Abstract
Forty-nine boys and 48 girls in grades four through six who were attending a program for intellectually gifted students were the subjects in this study. They were presented with a list of 34 leadership positions and asked whether men, women, or either sex could hold that position. Analysis of the findings indicates that boys tend to have more traditional sex role stereotypes than do girls. Implications for parents and teachers are discussed.Keywords
