Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gender identity refers to a person's psychological identification as male, female, or an alternative gender. It is based on a person's sense of self as male, female, or something else, and is not necessarily tied to their biological sex or sex-typed behaviors. Therefore, the best choice is B - sense of being male or female. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they refer to other aspects of gender like biological sex, attitudes about sex-typed behaviors, and conformity to sex-role stereotypes which are related but not the same as gender identity.
