Claremont Symposium on Applied Social Psychology$ (1992)

During the past two decades, the study of how gender influences social life has moved from the outskirts to the centre of psychology. Some of psychology's most cherished assumptions have been challenged and feminist scholars proposed alternative views of human development, research methods, cognitive functioning, family life and communication.

Specific issues explored include: gender differences in emotion; desire for control; attitudes towards leader
