性差が生み出される背景とは

抄録

The various underlying causes of both gender differences and gender inequality were investigated by analyzing previous studies on social perspectives, gender stereotypes, heterosexuality, and marital motives. To date, researchers have used different approaches for analysis of the public and private aspects of gender differences. For public aspects, they have investigated complaints about gender discrimination as a human rights issue in social settings. Private aspects have been related to the issue of forming male-female couples, i.e. heterosexual or marital motives. All of the above approaches are considered as the field of social psychology. This study attempted to approach these issues from the perspective of developmental psychology.
