This is a distinction that everyone, not just psychologists, should make.
Sex is related to the genitalia and chromosomes; it is purely biological. Often this fits into the male/female mould, although intersexuality is more widespread than is commonly thought (and doesn't just take the form of external genitalia ambiguity).
Gender is how a person feels. It is generally conceived in the male/female mould as well, but in reality a person can have any gender, including none. Non-binary genders include (but are not limited to) genderqueer, pangender, bigender and agender. Gender is generally assigned on biological sex in our society, but the two operate independently.
Projection and reflection are two psychological concepts that involve attributing one's own thoughts, feelings, or characteristics onto others. In projection, individuals unconsciously ascribe their own undesirable traits onto others, while in reflection, individuals see their own positive qualities in others. Understanding these concepts helps psychologists analyze how individuals perceive and interact with the world around them.
Operationalization is the term used when psychologists specify exactly how a subject is assessed in research, which involves defining variables in measurable and observable terms to ensure consistency and accuracy in data collection and analysis.
A girl who identifies as a boy may use terms like transgender or a trans boy to describe their gender identity. It is important to respect their preferred gender identity and use the appropriate pronouns they choose.
A pansexual (pan meaning "all"), in terms of sexual orientation, is someone with the capacity to be attracted to someone regardless of their sex, including those who may be transgendered/transsexual/etc. A polysexual (poly meaning "many"), in terms of sexual orientation, is someone with the capacity to be attracted to many genders, but not necessarily all of them.
Psychoanalytic theory suggests that gender role acquisition is influenced by a child's identification with their same-sex parent during the phallic stage of development. This process, known as the Oedipus complex for boys and Electra complex for girls, involves resolving feelings of desire and rivalry with the same-sex parent. Through successful resolution, children internalize gender norms and develop a sense of gender identity.

A gender identity crisis occurs when an individual experiences uncertainty or distress about their gender identity, where they may question or struggle to understand their own sense of gender. This can involve feelings of confusion, discomfort, and a disconnect between one's assigned gender at birth and their internal sense of self. People in this situation may seek support, therapy, or exploration to better understand and come to terms with their gender identity.
