Danziger, Warren L.; Botwinick, Jack
Journal of Gerontology, v35 n3 p388-94 May 1980
Young adults and older adults participated in a weight discrimination study to decide if two weights lifted successively were the same or different and to rate the decision confidence of responses. Younger adults discriminated between weights better than older adults and men discriminated better than women. (Author/CC)
