Differential Cue Utilization by Males and Females in Pattern Copying.
Vasta, Ross; Green, Pamela J.
Child Development, v53 n4 p1102-05 Aug 1982
When reference cues are added to a pattern copying task, males' performance improves, but females' remains the same. This superior cue utilization may partially explain differences in spatial abilities. The present research attempts to determine the optimum locus for facilitation of copying by reference cues. (RH)
