Differential Cue Utilization by Males and Females in Pattern Copying.
Vasta, Ross; Green, Pamela J.
Child Development, v53 n4 p1102-05 Aug 1982

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)
