Abstract
The objective was to elicit the mental representations about the sex o f the future child of 89 nulliparous pregnant women who declared havin g no sex preference, using the Kelly's Repertory Grid. Analyses showed that 67% of these women had no explicit and clear representation abou t the sex of their first child. These data suggest that these pregnant women seemed really to have no sex preference.
