...or a difference

• Florence Goodenough (1886-1959) & Carol Gilligan (1936-)– Goodenough refused the feminist label and did

not identify as a woman-psychologist, but Gilligan argues for the “different voice” of women to be included in psychology

Demonstrate differencesRhoda Unger and Leta Hollingworth discuss gender research:• LH: [talking about her sex diff. research]… You ladies must have

come to the same conclusion in your work.• RU: Well yes, to an extent. We tend to look at the issue from

less of a biological sex differences perspective though. In fact, I’ve tried to move away from the feminist empiricist method of drawing from theory, and ask questions with social meaning (Unger, 2006).

• LH: How do you mean? Don’t you think that rigorous, objective scientific research will naturally undermine these biased assumptions about women?

• RU: I think the type of questions you ask make a big difference…
