Do men distinguish (recognize or understand) complex spatial shapes (or complex geometric shapes) better than women? Are there such sex differences? and if yes, could you please suggest some previous works.
Thank you in advance.
I was trained in neuropsychological assessment by Dr. Edith Kaplan when I was studying Behavioral Neuroscience at the Boston University School of Medicine. Previous research from Edith and colleagues showed that female students majoring in math and science perform better on the Rey-Osterrieth complex figure than females who are not majoring in science or math. This finding was attributed to difference in the ability of math and science majors to coordinate the use of left- and right-hemisphere processing. These observations suggest that any new study looking at this relationship properly will require that subjects are stratified by additional factors such as college major, vocation, etc. in addition to their age and sex.
