The Influence on Mathematics Test Scores, by Ethnicity and Sex, of Prior Achievement and High School Mathematics Courses.
Jones, Lyle V.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v18 n3 p180-86 May 1987

Sophomore students with similar levels of mathematics achievement may be expected to improve similarly regardless of race or sex by taking additional mathematics courses. (MNS)
