1987年の研究を紹介します。女性は男性と比して「ケアしてもらうまで泣く」という行動をとる頻度が多いことが判明しました。
T tests for sex differences were conducted for each of the 35 acts of manipulation for each of the four instruments. Although significant sex differences occasionally emerged for a given instrument, only one act showed significant sex differ- ences across more than one data source. For example, the item “He or she whines until I do it” showed greater female than male performance frequencies for the observer data source in the instigation condition, t(90) = 2.82, p < .006.
