Abstract

Stereotypes and prejudices are based on the social categorization process (Tajfel, 1981). Their formation and development are strictly related to personal experience and to social learning dynamics.The aim of our study was to examine the content of different primary school readings books using content analysis. Results seem to delineate a general tendency to convey gender stereotypes.
