I remember watching a TV show on this study, it was probably _The Nature of Things_, a CBC science program hosted by Dr. David Suzuki. One woman in particular was holding and cuddling a "girl" and speaking softly, encouraging the baby (about 10-11 months old, I think) to sit quietly in her arms. IIRC, the women playing with the "boys" got down on the floor with them to play with the "boy toys" and be rambunctious. The girls seemed to enjoy it quite a bit.

I think this was shown in the late 1980s. Sorry I can't remember more about it, but it was definitely British.

HTH.

Do you have any information about the study? I'd be interested in the organization doing the study and any citations for published papers or articles.
