Kail, Jr., Robert V.; Siegel, Alexander W.
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 23, 3, 341-347, Jun 77
Males and females from grades 3, 6 and college viewed sets of five or seven letters in a 4x4 matrix and remembered either names of the letters, positions of the letters within the matrix or both letters and positions. At all grade levels females remembered letters better than positions, males did equally well on both. (MS)
