Se realiza un análisis de la relación entre género, identidad y memoria autobiográfica desde la perspectiva de doing gender. Para ello se intenta integrar resultados que corresponden a diferentes niveles de análisis. En el nivel individual se han observado diferencias en aspectos como la edad en el primer recuerdo, la macroestructura y el contenido de la memoria autobiográfica. Para rastrear los orígenes de estas diferencias se ha demostrado que los padres y madres emplean estilos narrativos diferentes con sus hijos e hijas. Estas diferencias en los estilos narrativos son consistentes con las diferencias en los recuerdos de niños y niñas.
Para concluir, asumimos la necesidad de profundizar en el análisis del nivel sociocultural, resaltamos el carácter bidirectional de la relación entre género y memoria autobiográfica, reconocemos la existencia de semejanzas entre los recuerdos de mujeres y hombres y afirmamos la dependencia contextual de las diferencias y semejanzas de género.
