摘要
Recent studies of political attitudes have documented increasing support for women political candidates among college students and adults. This study examined junior and senior high school students' attitudes toward women in politics and analyzed the effect of gender and race on their attitudes. We found that adolescent girls had very positive and optimistic views of the role of women in politics; adolescent boys, particularly blacks, had more negative and pessimistic views.
