In 1991, nearly 30 years after the play takes place, psychoanalyst Virginia Goldner argued that "gender coherence, consistency, conformity, and identity are culturally mandated normative ideals" and that "to conform to their dictates requires the activation of a false-self system".
Validity of randomization for age, gender, stool frequency, consistency, time spent attempting to defecate, and compliance with the regimen was assessed using Chi-square analysis for discontinuous variables or proportions and students T-test assuming unequal variance for continuous variables.
Within the genders however, the consistency of directional pathway regulation was almost complete, i.e. only one multi-diet regulated pathway was non-uniformly regulated in males (Shh) or females (intrinsic).
Next, multi-site models were used to assess the consistency of gender effects across sites, and to identify individual sites in which the gender effect differed from other sites in size or direction.
On the one hand, participants had consistency in gender, in order to avoid apprehension in discussing health issues in the presence of the opposite gender.
The data-entry error rate was also assessed by checking the consistency between registered gender and gender-specific diagnoses (ICD-9: 175, 180, 182, 183, 185, 185 and 186) (this check was embedded in the computer programme from year 2000).
As a divorced heterosexual man who was reared by a black nanny and has been a single parent, I am convinced that consistency, not gender, is the key to parenting; it is what allows the child to form strong attachments to the world and to grow secure in himself.
In order to examine whether gender and proficiency affected consistency, two sets of analyses were performed, one at a general level, and the other at a syllable-specific level.
The odds ratio for the parental consistency × gender interaction indicates that the inverse relationship between parental consistency and emotional disorder-anxiety is strongest for boys.
