- This source completely exemplifies the topic of my paper. It is a scholarly article and references the different things that impact a child's gender role development.
- All arguments in this article are completely organized and well-supported.
- The author urges the reader to make a change and adopt an "adrogynous gender role orientation" when raising children. She also seems to be asking the reader to challenge traditional gender roles, which is important.
- The publication date is unknown, but is probably recent. Citations are from around 1990 or later.
- The author is very thorough in this article, but her opinion is very obvious. I will have to make sure to not let bias show through in my own writing.
- As an article on the internet, it is true this article COULD not be legitimate. However, because it is hosted by a college and is for a psychology class at said college, I believe it to be a worthy source.

- This source delves into children's gender identities and how that is developed through parents, siblings, and their exposure to traditional gender roles.
- The research questions from this article show that it is exactly what I'm looking for. The topic is literally "gender: early socialization", which directly ties in with what I'm researching and writing about.
-The study is supported by the results, with added difficulties with separating parental influences and expectations on their children and their childrens' gender identities.
- The research gaps, in addressing the exact influence of parent's on gender development in children, could bring some doubt to this article. However, everything is well thought-out and addressed.
- The publication date is less than a year ago, meaning the research is probably still completely relevant.
- This source even addresses the differing parenting styles in heterosexual versus same-gender relationships, making it even more valuable.
- The genre of an internet source could bring doubt, but I'm sure it's legitimate.

Journal of Personality and Social Psychology 63.No. 6 (1992): 932-44. Http://rcgd.isr.umich.edu/garp/articles/jacobs92.pdf. University of Michigan / Research Center for Group Dynamics. Web. 2 Oct. 2014.
- This source has information on the impact of a parent, specifically a mother's, impact on a child's ideals about gender roles, which is exactly what i need for my paper.
- The article seems to be well supported and legitimate, as it especially touches on stereotypes and judgements. I will be able to use the facts in this source to establish what a parent's influence does.
- Because the study is from over 20 years ago, the information may not be as relevant. However, 10 years is not that long so the information is probably still accurate.
- The source is very in-depth, thorough, and well-organized, which is impressive.
- The source is from a real journal of psychology, so it is a legitimate scholarly source.

Web. 6 Oct. 2014. <http://amodiolab.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Halim-Ruble-Amodio-2011.pdf>.
- This source is really important in identifying what society's gender expectations do to a child or young adult's gender identity, which will help me in examining the psychological effect of gender roles.
- I'd like to touch on the expectations for both genders, and this paper examines all of that. It delves into the differences between feminine and masculine gender identities in people.
- The article is recent and from an actual psychological journal so the information should be legitimate.
- The source is from 2011, which is recent enough to still be relevant.
- This article seems to encompass all parts of establishing a gender identity and changing representations, which will be useful in my paper.
- This article seems to only talk about the male and female genders only, and the author seems to think masculine = boy and feminine = girl which is not always true...

- This article focuses on children who "challenge gender norms" and, therefore, go against traditional gender roles. This article also talks about Gender Independent kids who are neither boys or girls, which is something I really want to talk about in my paper.
- This article has many, many citations to back up the information given. The author also supports his argument with research on sexuality, which will be useful in my paper.
- The author is a self-professed trans activist, which may cause his paper to be opinionated. Taking that into consideration, an opinion on this subject may be useful in writing.
- The article was published this year, meaning the information is still relevant!
- This article covers basically everything having to do with gender: non-binary, transgender, intersex, etc. It will probably be my best/favorite source.
- The article was originally published in a journal of human sexuality, making it totally relevant for my paper.
