This brief self-report measure is intended to screen for gender-role–related behavioral patterns and their perceived developmental history. The Cross-Gender Accentuation Assessment asks respondents to reflect on childhood behaviors and compare them with perceived expectations tied to assigned sex.
The instrument includes 12 items and typically takes about 3 minutes to complete. It is attributed to Sandra L. Bem. In clinical or research contexts, the Cross-Gender Accentuation Assessment may be used as an adjunct to a broader psychosocial interview when exploring gender-role conformity/nonconformity themes and retrospective self-perceptions, with interpretation kept within the limits of self-report and recall.
