| Summary: | In this thesis, I will investigate girls’ and boys’ sports participation in Malaysia. The
areas are gender typing in sports participation, the relationship between gender and
stereotypes, perceptions and influences and the relationship between gender within
ethnicities in relation to stereotyping, perception and influences.
This thesis demonstrates the importance of gender by itself and in conjunction with
ethnicities in understanding sports participation.
The purpose of this thesis is to test the theory of equality that relates to gender and
ethnicity (these variables will be the independent variable in this research) to gender typing
of sports and its relationship to stereotyping, perception and influences (the dependant
variable) for boys and girls at urban schools in the Klang Valley. Independent variable is
the variable that influences the values of the dependant variable and the dependant variable
is the variable where the values are foretold by the independent variable (Collis & Hussey,
2009). |
