Abstract: Completed questionnaires of childhood play behavior as reported by adult male homosexuals and heterosexuals, and female homosexuals and heterosexuals, circa 1977. These completed questionnaires formed the basis for the study "Childhood Play Activities of Male and Female Homosexuals" by Edward A. Grellert, Michael D. Newcomb, and P.M. Bentler, published in Archives of Sexual Behavior, Vol. II, No. 6, 1982.

Administrative History

The completed questionnaires formed the basis for the study "Childhood Play Activities of Male and Female Homosexuals" by Edward A. Grellert, Michael D. Newcomb, and P.M. Bentler, published in Archives of Sexual Behavior, Vol. II, No. 6, 1982. The abstract states that the "study examined the differences in childhood play behavior reported by adult male homosexuals and heterosexuals and those reported by female homosexuals and heterosexuals," and found "large significant differences between heterosexual males and females, male homosexuals and heterosexuals, and female homosexuals and heterosexuals."
