Four new scales were generated through factor analysis: a Gender Scale, a Girl Typicality Scale, a Boy Typicality Scale, and a Cross-Gender Scale (CGS).
Through factor analyses on the adapted items, four scales were generated: a Gender Scale (GS), a Girl Typicality Scale (GTS), a Boy Typicality Scale (BTS), and a Cross-Gender Scale (CGS), together constituting the 32-item CPBAQ.
(1994a) later incorporated five items and constructed four subscales through factor analysis: (1) CGPQ-A, a bipolar Gender scale, (2) CGPQ-B, a Preschool scale, (3) CGPQ-C, a Masculinity scale, and (4) CGPQ-D, a Femininity/Preschool scale.
The items in CGPQ and CBAQ were earlier viewed as comprising four scales (a bipolar gender scale, a boy typical scale, a girl typical scale, and a cross-gender scale); this view was based upon differential item correlations with the factor-analytically derived scales of a second gender behavior questionnaire (Meyer-Bahlburg et al., 1994a, b).
The first one was a bipolar Gender Scale (GS), incorporating 24 items loading above.40 on the unrotated Factor 1, with negative loadings for boy-typical items.
It's not about whether you are big, small, lumpy, cuddly, boney, shaped like a dodecahedron, a man, a woman, anywhere on the gender scale or anything else you can think of.
The gender effect sizes on the CPBAQ scale were comparable to the original CBAQ bipolar Masculinity-Femininity scale (CBAQ-FEM) and CGPQ bipolar Gender scale (CGPQ-A).
"She's already a 9 on the gender scale".
Our goal as teachers is to move GP registrars along a gender sensitivity scale and to (a) enable GP registrars to understand basic concepts of gender, (b) sensitize GP registrars to gender as determinant of health, and (c) ensure that GP registrars attain a reasonable understanding of why gender-specific medicine is relevant.
I just happen to have had it with people all along the gender scale.
They're men, women, and other stripes on the gender scale.
