  • Mixed-gender anxiety and gender-based relationship efficacy: A cross-lagged study of single-sex versus coeducational schooling bridging high school graduation

    Open Access•Wang Ivy Wong, Sylvia Yun Shi et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of School Psychology•2025

  • A long-term prospective cross-lagged study of gender-typed play and mental transformation in children

    Open Access•Wang Ivy Wong, Sylvia Yun Shi et al.•ARTICLE•Child Development•2025•References: 56

    Gender-typed play may contribute to gender disparities in spatial skills, but evidence of this link is limited. Gender-typed play and mental transformation, an important spatial skill, were studied using age-appropriate and comprehensive measures. Chinese children were tested at 5–6 years and at 11–14 years (N = 210), creating a long-term data set considering bidirectional associations. Play and mental transformation showed moderate to large gend…

  • He did girls’ things!” Hong Kong and Canadian children’s reasoning about moral judgments of peers’ gendered behaviors

    Karen Man Wa Kwan, Sylvia Yun Shi et al.•ARTICLE•Developmental Psychology•2024•Cited by: 2

    Children show less positivity toward gender-nonconforming (GN) than gender-conforming (GC) peers. Yet, little is known about children's reasoning about peers of varying gender expressions, including age-, gender-, and culture-related influences. We investigated how children aged 4- to 5- and 8- to 9-years-old in Hong Kong and Canada ( N = 678) reason about their moral judgments of GC and GN peers. After viewing vignettes describing GC and GN boys…

  • Observations on Gender Variance in Chinese Community Children Measured by the Gender Identity Questionnaire for Children

    Open Access•Wang Ivy Wong, Sylvia Yun Shi et al.•ARTICLE•Archives of Sexual Behavior•2024•References: 26

  • Gender variance and psychological well-being in Chinese community children

    Wang Ivy Wong, Anna I R van der Miesen et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology of Sexual Orientation…•2023•Cited by: 2

    Childhood gender variance (GV) and its association with psychological well-being have garnered increasing interest recently but little is known about children from the community and non-Western samples. Therefore, we examined GV and its associations with psychological well-being in a Chinese community sample where study of childhood GV is extremely rare. Parents of 461 Chinese children aged 4–12 years (243 birthassigned males) provided informatio…

  • Girls Are Better Students but Boys Will Be More Successful at Work: Discordance Between Academic and Career Gender Stereotypes in Middle Childhood

    Open Access•Wang Ivy Wong, Sylvia Yun Shi et al.•ARTICLE•Archives of Sexual Behavior•2023•References: 44

  • Children’s Appraisals of Gender Nonconformity: Developmental Pattern and Intervention

    Open Access•Karen Man Wa Kwan, Sylvia Yun Shi et al.•ARTICLE•Child Development•2020

    Gender-nonconforming (GN) children are often perceived less positively, which may harm their well-being. We examined the development of such perceptions and an intervention to modify them. Chinese children’s appraisals were assessed using multiple measures (verbal responses, sharing, and rank order task) after viewing vignettes of gender-conforming (GC) and GN hypothetical peers. In Study 1, children (N = 210; 4-, 5-, 8-, and 9-year-olds) were le…
