The demographic characteristics of the neighborhood, such as population density, socioeconomic status, or race, do not directly influence sex role differences in play. However, they may indirectly affect children's play patterns by shaping the social norms, values, and expectations about gender roles and behaviors that children are exposed to and internalize through cultural transmission processes. Therefore, while neighborhood characteristics may have an impact on children's socialization experiences, they are not a direct influence on sex role differences in play.
