12015-11-20T14:10:24-08:00Socio-Cognitive Theory and Gender Identity Formation10gallery2015-11-25T23:22:17-08:00This theory represents a particular view of how gender-related behavior is acquired and maintained, based on contemporary social learning theory. A cornerstone of this theory is that children learn through the modeling of others. Children, and specifically girls, are capable of learning gender-typed behaviors through the observation of same-sex models. Bussey and Bandura (1999) asserted that children learn under what conditions modeled behaviors and attitudes should be adopted, such as when parents instruct their child to behave in a more gender-egalitarian manner, but model highly gender-typed behaviors. By this, it is clear that gender identities and roles are created and maintained via social influences (such as parents, teachers, and teachers). ECCE is avenue to disseminate and shape gender norms and expectations, therefore impacting gender equity through the development of gender identity.
12015-11-20T21:57:02-08:00The Role of Parents' Gendered Attitudes8plain2015-11-20T22:21:05-08:00Considering the early development of gender identity and social-cognitive theory, it is not surprising that prevalent gender attitudes and beliefs are modeled and internalized in the early childhood setting. Parental attitudes have a direct impact on child development, socialization/norms, and student achievement. One aspect of social-cognitive theory is the importance of modeling of gender roles, behaviors and expectations. In this way, parents play a vital role in the construction of gender identity in the early years. Parents have long been considered children’s first teachers. Parental roles serve as the earliest model of gender roles in a child’s life and parental attitudes and practices regarding gender can influence and shape children’s early experiences (DermanāSparks & Ramsey, 1993; Lin, 2008).
