By what age children are aware of gender stability as per Kohlberg's theory of the development of gender identity ?
Answer: B
In Kohlberg's account of gender identity development, children aged about 3½ to 4½ years reach gender stability. Gender identity (labelling oneself as a boy or girl) comes first at around 2 to 3½ years. Gender stability is the understanding that gender stays the same over time, and it is followed by gender constancy at about 4½ to 7 years, when children grasp that gender does not change with clothing or activity. The 2-3½ range is the stage of identity, the 4½-7 range is constancy, and 11-14 years lies beyond the theory's early stages.
