Now in its 7th edition, Psychology of Gender/Sex reviews the research and issues surrounding gender from multiple perspectives, including psychology, sociology, anthropology, and public health. It explores the ways in which gendered experiences are varied across development, social identities, and locations, focusing on the construct of gender/sex, as well as the implications of gender/sex for school, work, relationships, and health.

Going far beyond discussions of biological sex and gender identity, the text explores the gender/sex roles that society assigns to people, the various ways in which people break and bend those roles, and the other variables that co-occur with gender/sex, such as status and power.

Key features of this edition include:

- Updated and integrated coverage of LGBTQ+ issues, identities, and experiences

- Expanded emphasis on the intersectionality of gender/sex

- Renewed focus on abortion/bodily autonomy and reproduction

- Expanded discussions of emerging topics such as online interactions and social media, the impact of COVID on gender/sex inequalities, gender/sex in the workplace, and social justice and activism.

Engaging and readable, Psychology of Gender/Sex is an essential text for all students of gender from psychology, women's studies, gender studies, sociology, and anthropology.
