Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Eleanor Maccoby's research suggests that girls find it easier to influence other girls but not boys, which contributes to gender segregation. This is because girls tend to use indirect influence strategies, such as gossip and exclusion, that are more effective with same-gender peers. As a result, girls often form same-gender peer groups, which leads to gender segregation in childhood and beyond. The other choices are not supported by Maccoby's research.
