Gender and Task Interaction: Instant and Delayed Recall of Three Story Types.
Daly, Peter; Salters, John; Burns, Colette
Educational Review, v50 n3 p269-75 Nov 1998
Measures of immediate and delayed recall of stories by 8- and 11-year-old children revealed that boys recalled more than girls from stories about violent males. Girls outperformed boys on stories with female protagonists. Most variability in recall related to story-type differences, not individual differences. (SK)
