Abstract: This study examined gender differences in preschoolers' self-regulatory levels through multiple measures, including teacher ratings, teacher surveys, individual tasks, and group tasks.Results showed that most teachers responded that girls display higher levels of self-regulation than boys in both their interviews and on their surveys.However, there were no significant gender differences on the individual assessment.There were also very few significant gender differences on the group tasks, though those that were uncovered appear to be explained by group composition.Findings and implications are discussed, especially in terms of context and academic shifts in determining gender differences in self-regulation.
