DESCRIPTORS Attitude Measures; *Cartoons; *Childhood Attitudes; Early Childhood Education; Higher Education; *Sex Role; *Sex Stereotypes; Television Research; *Television Viewing ABSTRACT This study, a part of a larger project, investigated what children learn about gender roles from cartoons and how these cartoons might color the children's view of the world. A total of 89 children ranging in age from four to nine were sampled from three different locations (a university-affiliated day-care center and two parochial schools near the university). Interviewers were eight trained senior-level university students in a Women and Communication class. Interviews with the children lasted from 4 to 10 minutes. Results indicated that:(1) children watched more "chase-and-pratfall" cartoons than any other type, but the favorite cartoon type for neavly half of the children was continuing adventure; (2) a strong correlation existed between continuing adventure cartoons and more stereotypically male behaviors; (3) children attributed more of all behaviors to boy characters than to girl characters;(4) both boys and girls
