Abstract
The current study investigates the relationship between children's age and their stereotype-consistent choices, based on race and gender, regarding adults’ jobs and children’s future jobs. Findings indicate that with age, participants tend to make more stereotype-consistent choices for the children’s future jobs, but not for adults’ jobs.
