Girls play outside in nature less than boys do, even at the age of two, according to the first national survey of play among preschool-age children in Britain. While researchers expect to see older children socialised to particular gender roles, they were shocked to see similar patterns of behaviour starting to emerge at such a young age. They fear it could have long-term implications for girls’ health, as girls are less physically active as they get older and are more likely than boys to have difficulties with their mental health.

The study also found that preschool-age children from a minority ethnic background play less outdoors than their white counterparts, and children in urban areas play less outdoors than those in rural areas. “The results highlight inequalities in play even in the youngest age group, which may exacerbate existing inequalities in health,” the report concluded.

The research surveyed more than 1,100 parents and carers of children aged two, three and four. They found that preschool children spent approximately four hours a day at play, of which one hour and 45 minutes was spent playing outdoors, mainly in back gardens at home. Away from home, children played in playgrounds and green spaces, with the most adventurous play usually associated with indoor play centres.

“The popularity of these play centers is growing,” the report said. “This may be driven by indoor play centres providing adventurous play experiences that overcome some of the barriers to outdoor adventurous play such as traffic, weather and safety concerns.”

❌ ERRADO. O texto não apresenta números específicos que comprovem a diferença entre meninos e meninas quanto a brincar ao ar livre. A afirmação de que "Girls play outside in nature less than boys do, even at the age of two" é apresentada como um resultado geral da pesquisa, sem qualquer dado numérico que quantifique essa diferença por gênero.

O único número específico sobre tempo de brincadeira aparece no terceiro parágrafo, mas é um dado agregado, sem distinção de gênero:

The research surveyed more than 1,100 parents and carers of children aged two, three and four. They found that preschool children spent approximately four hours a day at play, of which one hour and 45 minutes was spent playing outdoors, mainly in back gardens at home.

Esse trecho informa o total de horas de brincadeira e o tempo ao ar livre para o conjunto das crianças, mas não separa meninos de meninas. Portanto, o item erra ao afirmar que o texto traz números específicos que provam a diferença de gênero.

NÃO CAIA NESSA!

O item confunde a existência de uma afirmação geral sobre a diferença com a apresentação de números específicos que a comprovem. O texto afirma a diferença ("Girls play outside less than boys"), mas não a quantifica numericamente. O candidato pode ser levado a pensar que o dado de "1 hora e 45 minutos" se aplica separadamente, mas é um valor geral.

❌ ERRADO.
