title: Mental representations concerning the sex of the baby of pregnant nulliparous women who wished a boy or a girl.
abstract: The objective was to obtain the mental representations concerning the sex of the child of 125 nulliparous third- and fourth-mo. pregnant women who wished a boy or a girl, using Kelly's Repertory Grid. Our data indicate that the grid's average of the two groups of women is significantly different from 3 (the neutral point).
