Correlations between original study variables for parents thinking of sons and daughters

Variables Correlations
1 2 3 4 5 6
1. Desirability of stereotypical girls’ toys −.25** .59** −.51** −.35** −.18*
2. Desirability of stereotypical boys’ toys −.15 .09 .05 .11 −.05
3. Desirability of gender-neutral toys .29** .28** −.34** −.25** −.18*
4. Gender-typing of stereotypical girls’ toys .05 −.30** −.13 .74** .43**
5. Gender-typing of stereotypical boys’ toys .12 −.39** −.10 .61** .49**
6. NGRO −.13 −.17* −.20** .29** .34**

Correlation coefficients for parents thinking of daughters are reported below the diagonal; parents thinking of sons, above the diagonal. NGRO = Normative Gender Role Attitudes. Desirability judgments range from 1 to 7, with higher values indicating higher desirability of a given type of toy; Gender-typing scores range from 1 to 100, with higher values indicating stronger gender-typing of toys; NGRO scores range from 1 to 7, with higher values indicating more traditional gender role attitudes
