This gender studies textbook provides a comprehensive exploration of the psychology of gender, examining biological, social, and cultural influences on gender identity, roles, and behaviors. Divided into ten modules, the book begins by defining the psychology of gender and the research methods used to study it. It then delves into biological factors such as chromosomes and hormones, followed by theories of gender identity.
