The current article describes the development of children’s gender-related emotional differences in the bio-psycho-social model. This article explains when these gender differences occur in terms of developmental perspective and how the developmental and contextual factors affect the emergence of this difference. Previous empirical studies have supported this model, at least for the European and American white middle class children. The ar- ticle also discusses the limitations of existing empirical research and the future directions of emo- tion expression and gender in childhood.
