Abstract

ANGARIT-CACERES, Rafael Gonzalo. Gender Differences in Experimental Studies of Resource Allocation with Children’s Participation. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.1, pp.486-508.  Epub Nov 01, 2022. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.4738.

The article shows that experimental studies that aim to examine principles of distributive justice in children can be read from their relationship with the demographic variable gender. By making this critical reading from a thematic review, it is possible to observe that the studies, in general terms, show findings in three directions: no gender differences; non-significant differences; and significant differences. These results, however, are directly related both to participants’ age and methodological specificities of the experimentation. In order to account for these aspects, the text is divided into three parts: first-person studies, third-person work, and cultural comparisons.

Keywords : Principles of Distributive Justice; Children; Gender Differences; Firstand Third-Person Studies; and Cultural Comparisons.
