Park, Hae-Seong; Bauer, Scott C.; Sullivan, Lisa Melancon
Journal of Research and Development in Education, v31 n3 p133-41 Spr 1998
Examined gender differences in the mathematics performance of high-achieving fourth and sixth graders, noting the effects of ethnicity. Scores from 1996 California Achievement Tests indicated that students in both grades showed significant gender differences. There were no interaction effects of gender by ethnicity. There were inconsistent racial differences across two subskill areas. (Author/SM)
