Sex-Related Differences in Hemispheric Asymmetries in Processing Simple Geometrical Figures.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
And Others; Bagnara, Sebastiano – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
Eight men and eight women responded "same" or "different" to pairs of geometric figures. Male subjects showed a left visual-field advantage regardless of the level of processing, whereas female subjects did not show a clear-cut hemispheric asymmetry. Results are discussed in terms of sex differences in processing strategies. (Author/SJL)
