S ummary . 240 children aged 9, 12 and 15 years evaluated successes and failures of other children. Information concerning the other children's levels of ability, effort and outcome together with sex was supplied. A number of sex differences were found particularly concerning the extent to which the evaluations related to the effort and outcome information supplied. The results are compared to those of earlier studies conducted in the United States of America and Iran.
