Children, growing up in societies rife with social disparities, notice them and actively reason about why they exist. Unfortunately, children naturally tend to attribute such disparities to features intrinsic to social groups, which has socially problematic consequences, such as stereotyping and justifying disparities. What might be an alternative way of thinking? As a potential alternative to children's default mode of inherent thinking, Chapter 1 introduces the concept of structural thinking -- which attributes social differences and disparities to social structures external to the particular social groups -- and reviews evidence that children as young as 5 can engage in structural thinking. Chapter 2 finds that structural thinking about social differences and social disparities shapes children and adults' generalization, normativity, and interventions to correct disparities in ways that could be conducive to social change. Focusing on the case of parent-child conversations about race, Chapter 3 finds that structural explanations could be an effective strategy to recommend to parents, especially White parents, who tend to engage in relatively ineffective strategies instead. Together, these chapters present experimental evidence for the advantages of children's structural thinking in a variety of domains, including diet differences, and occupational and academic achievement disparities. Chapter 4 presents directions for future research on structural thinking, including how children conceptualize boundary conditions, the nature of structures, and the structural origins of real-world disparities. Taken as a whole, this work presents the potential of structural thinking as a way of addressing social disparities.
