GÉNERO Y NIVEL EDUCATIVO EN LAS NARRATIVAS AUTOBIOGRÁFICAS DE LA INFANCIA

Abstract

The present work deals with autobiographic memory, educative background and gender roles. It is based in socio–cultural psychology research supporting the relationship between context and the development of cognitive processes. 96 structured interviews were made in Cd. Victoria, Tamaulipas to men and women with different educative background: literacy, basic education and university, they ranged between 30 and 55 years old. Personal recollections analysis is based in the categories proposed by Wang (Wang 2001, Wang y Conway 2004). Roles of main characters present in the autobiographical narratives were also investigated using family, educational, work, recreational, and sport contexts.
