GCSE and coursework...in early gender role sociaisation within the family, girls are more likely than boys to be encouraged to be neat, tidy and patient

| Mum says I can play football. She said you should tidy up your room | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| But your room is messier than mine! Why do I always have to be neat and tidy and you don't? | |

As a result of this encouragement, Mitsos and Browne conclude that girls are more succesful in school at coursework, which was introduced in 1988 because girls had been socialised to meet deadlines

| Well done for doing your homework on time. I can see you spend a lot of time and attention making your work neat and presentable...I wish your brother was more like that | |

| I wish I'd done my work earlier like my sister. Why is it that girls always get their homework done? | |
