Ilai, Doron; Willerman, Lee
Intelligence, v13 n3 p225-34 Jul-Sep 1989
Items showing sex differences on the revised Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-R) were studied. In a sample of 206 young adults (110 males and 96 females), 15 items demonstrated significant sex differences, but there was no relationship of item-specific gender content to sex differences in item performance.
